Enabling Wi-Fi on First boot

[Enrico Mioso]

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.

>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
