i have tested reaver on a netgear and linksys (dont have model nos. with
me) with wps disabled and enabled. the wps setting did not matter and both
were vulnerable. was able to recover wpa2 passphrase in ~4 hrs on both.

Have you directly confirmed a WPS exchange can occur even on devices that
aren't advertising support?  That would indeed be a quick and dirty way to
"turn the feature off".
