Hello all!!
I would like to know your opinion on a topic I know has already been
discussed: enabling Wi-Fi on first boot.
I would very very much like to see this feature present in OpenWRt: because
I find myself in a scenario where plugging an Ethernet cable after a fresh
sysupgrade without keeping settings (due a a major upgrade or just to
"start clean") could be impractical.
I think you can add uci-default scripts to enable it or do you want a config
option during build time?
Hello Paul!!
Well, I tought about uci-defaults, but I tough it won't be so easy to implement
due to the fact Wi-Fi is probed asynchronously, and on some devices i saw it
takes a little bit (Netgear R7800).
I would have liked to have something already implemented in OpenWRt, so it
could be looked at by more people and have much higher chances of working on
all devices.

From an implementation perspective, I don't think this feature needs to be
present on images we build with builtbots, nor official images at all. It
may be a config option a user can check when self-building his/her images.
This would allow us to relax the security settings for the moment being,
and discuss and plan them later on. It seems to me there is the general
desire for having such a feature.
Thanks a lot!
Enrico
