Wi-Fi Expansion
ESP32-C5 does not support Wi-Fi functionality natively, but it is possible to use the same Wi-Fi API and features using Wi-Fi expansion.
The principle of Wi-Fi Expansion operation is to add another ESP32 series, Wi-Fi capable, target connected to the ESP32-C5 in a pre-defined way. Your project could then include the esp_wifi_remote component using:
idf.py add-dependency esp_wifi_remote
Please follow the instructions described in the esp_wifi_remote documentation.
To explore the Wi-Fi Expansion functionality on ESP32-C5, you can get started with this example: examples/protocols/mqtt/tcp/README.md and choose Wi-Fi connection in the project configuration menu.
