Hi there @mpous , I think I picked the wrong lead due to the fact that I was missing [the WiFi Connect diagram](https://github.com/balena-os/wifi-connect/blob/master/docs/state-flow-diagram.md). The issues is that the React (UI part of the Captive Portal) sends only the credentials to the WiFi (SSID & Password) and on the server side (RUST) [the captive portal is stopped forcefully](https://github.com/balena-os/wifi-connect/blob/master/src/network.rs#L219) Although I have created a reply [on this thread](https://forums.balena.io/t/raspberry-pi-wifi-access-point/1255/11) since its more related to the actual context and hope I’d get attention of [josephroberts’s](https://forums.balena.io/u/josephroberts) kind interest to take a look and offer me an input about that 🥺 After multiple tryouts and wrong leads I know that I only need to figure out how to avoid the rust to kill the captive portal just before getting the response from the `/connect` endpoint. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.balena.io/t/wificonnect-extend-captive-portal-with-a-url-callback-redirect-after-successfully-connected-to-the-internet/354046)._
