WiFi Soft AP sample

Shows how to use various APIs related with WiFi Soft AP.

Starts a Soft AP (Hot spot) and runs a simple web server to configure the Wireless connection parameters.

The sample uses GPIO pin 5 to switch back into the SoftAP configuration mode. When pulled to ground on boot will switch into Soft AP mode.
You can connect to the web server via the url http://192.168.4.1/

Once you save the wireless configuration the next boot the device will automatically connect to that Access Point and the Soft AP will be disabled.

Note: This sample is part of a large collection of nanoFramework feature samples. If you are unfamiliar with Git and GitHub, you can download the entire collection as a ZIP file, but be sure to unzip everything to access any shared dependencies.

Hardware requirements
