Connecting the device to the Wi-Fi network

In case of unsuccessful connection to the Wi-Fi network, the device creates an access point with an ip address 192.168.4.1. To send Wi-Fi network settings (SSID, PASSWORD) to the device, connect to the AP and send a command via SSH terminal:

echo '{"id":1, "method":"set_config", "SSID":"Wi-Fi SSID", "PASSWD": "PASSWORD"}' | nc -w1 192.168.4.1 2000
