Reply to EAWiFiUnconfiguredAccessoryBrowser "Accessory Setup" UI selects blank/null SSID by default
@DTS Engineer Thanks! This flow works, but our main goal in using WAC is to avoid asking the user to enter their password (preshared key). Our #1 customer service issue comes from the the entry of an incorrect password. WAC allows the user to select the SSID from a list and iOS provides the credentials directly to the accessory. WiFiInfrastructure does the same.

Hi Kevin, Thanks for your quick and helpful response! I created a bug report for this here: FB20313096. The sysdiagnose is attached. I also created a Suggestion asking for WAC support in AccessorySetupKit here: FB20313163 Our accessory is a pure WAC accessory. It is not a HomeKit accessory. Our product is a digital picture frame. As far as I'm aware, none of the HomeKit categories are a good fit for our product so we don't yet have plans to adopt HomeKit.

@DTS Engineer: This new WiFiInfracture entitlement and API would be a great solution for this problem and allow us to use AccessorySetupKit instead of the old WAC UI. I hope it becomes available outside the EU. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/wifiinfrastructure/sharing-wi-fi-network-credentials
