Abstract: An access point apparatus, a control apparatus and a method are defined for connecting a guest device to a wireless network according to a device provisioning protocol, DPP. A guest channel and an administrative channel are utilised in order to ensure separation of the wireless network, such that the guest device is never connected to the administrative channel. The administrative channel is used by the control apparatus to fetch guest connection information from the access point apparatus, which is then communicated to the guest device. The guest device then uses this information to facilitate the connection to the wireless network via the guest channel.
