Hi Guys,

I will be working on the Laird Sterling LWB5+ module which is based on CYW4373 chip

I want to configure to create an access point so I can connect to using my smartphone

I want to know if this module supports creating WI-FI access points, also please provide me with corresponding documents / datasheets /user manual that can help me

Big thanks

Hi @Yahya_Yozo ,

The direct example code for access point is not available but it is achievable using the API's available. Basically refer that document and setup things for wifi scan and then you can go for access point implementation.

Thanks,

Hi @Yahya_Yozo ,

You can use stm32 connectivity expansion pack to achieve the requirement.

The link for user guide is attached.

This guide shows an example of a Wi-Fi scan for the available access point , I want the opposite, I want the module to create an access point ?

Is this doable ?
