고맙습니다. 실행이 잘 됩니다.
웹에서 사용된 html 페이지는 어떻게 구성하는지 소스를 오픈 해주시겠습니까?
궁금합니다.
curl과 bash를 공부 중입니다.
감사합니다.

thank you. It runs fine.
Could you open the source for how to organize the html page used on the web?
I wonder.
I'm studying curl and bash.
Thank you.

Hello Lukic,

thank you very much for this ! It worked perfectly for me using only your script on a RPi4. It worked directly on first attempt !
uname -r -> 5.10.17-v7l+

This saved many hours for me..

Best regards,
Tugrul

Has anyone got this working with alternative hostapd seetings of "hw_mode=n" or "ieee80211n=1" .. if I use either of these, the SSID is hidden and cant connect to it

Thanks for the base.

1. In line 23 missing double quote by the end of line. Should be:
   RUN+="/bin/ip link set ap0 address ${MAC_ADDRESS}"

2. It's better to set network config in /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

network={
        ssid="${CLIENT_SSID}"
        psk="${CLIENT_PASSPHRASE}"
        id_str="AP1"
        scan_ssid=1
        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
        priority=100
}

This way RPi can connect to hidden network too.
