 +==== Building the firmware ====
 +  * You can follow the firmware building instructions as stipulated for the normal MESHdesk firmware on OpenWrt.
 +  * There are just two deviations:
 +    * Use the **wpad-ssl (full)** package instead of **wpad (full)** package under **Network -> WirelessAPD**.
 +    * Under the openwrt/files folder, create the **/lib/netifd/** directory.
 +    * Copy the /openwrt-meshdesk/passpoint_client/24.10/hostapd.sh file in there as a drop in replacement. This is so that the access point can run a Hotspot 2.0 / Passpoint uplink.
