Well, my point was that you should have done what @Doppel-D did, and provided some background info on what you were talking about. This is not a well known term, at least not yet. You can not assume everyone is in the same niche as you are. And a central tenant given in writing courses is to write for the expected reader, not for yourself.

You are not the only thing one doing this on the Internet though, it is common in various forums, reddit etc.

@serial115200 you say you made it work then you say you need more info. It is not built by default, but if you rebuild hostapd with dpp parameters you can make it share wifi to other android by reading qr code twice instead of more common once.

The current version of hostapd already supports DPP.

I was checking the config files, and only wpa_supplicant (e.g., wpa_supplicant-full.config) has mentions to CONFIG_DPP, but commented out.
An important highlight is that the current version of hostapd/wpa_supplicant enables CONFIG_DPP2 and CONFIG_DPP3 (reference here, with backward compatibility), thus an update of OpenWRT hostapd config files would be beneficial.

For hostapd, no mentions in the config files for CONFIG_DPP*.

I think that a rebuild of hostapd with CONFIG_DPP2=y in conjunction with CONFIG_INTERWORKING=y (reference) would do the work.

I am on the way to learn how to build this customization of hostapd in the OpenWrt environment :sweat_smile:.

I did an upstream pull request for that:

Let's wait... Comments are welcome!
