Wi-Fi Hotspot Offloading Overview
Wi-Fi Hotspot Offloading deprecation note
Important
Starting in Windows 10, version 1709, the Wi-Fi Hotspot Offloading feature is deprecated and should not be used. Instead, we recommend writing a UWP app and using the Wi-Fi Hotspot Authentication API (Windows.Networking.NetworkOperators).
For a code sample and more info, see the Wi-Fi hotspot authentication sample.
Wi-Fi Hotspot Offloading enables Windows 10 Mobile to automatically identify and connect to local Wi-Fi networks designated as "hotspots." The Wi-Fi Hotspot Offload Framework enables mobile operators to ship phones preconfigured with customized hotspot plugins for Wi-Fi hotspot offloading.
