Zero-Touch Hotspot 2.0 Onboarding Notification Fix
Budget: $500 – $1,000 USD
We have configured a Raspberry Pi-based wireless Access Point (AP) with Hotspot 2.0 (HS2.0) and Online Sign-Up (OSU) support, integrated with a RADIUS backend for authentication and accounting. While the network broadcasts correctly under the SSID Shop_Welcome_OSU, and OSU parameters are visible to capable devices, new devices do not receive an automatic notification or onboarding prompt when entering proximity.
Goal:
Enable a seamless, app-free, zero-touch discovery and signup experience where capable devices automatically receive a notification or welcome message with the Wi-Fi name upon entering a limited distance—similar to deployments in airports, hospitals, and malls.
Deliverables:
- Updated configurations for `hostapd`, `dnsmasq`, and RADIUS that enable automatic onboarding notifications.
- Validation of ANQP responses, OSU server interactions, and proper advertisement of vendor-specific IE fields.
- A short write-up explaining changes made for reproducibility.
- A test script or command sequence to verify end-to-end provisioning success.
Ideal Skills & Experience:
- Expertise in HS2.0/ANQP/OSU configurations.
- Strong knowledge of RADIUS authentication/accounting.
- Experience with Raspberry Pi-based access points and Linux networking tools.
- Familiarity with seamless Wi-Fi onboarding solutions.
