You could try to use the AP+STA mode.
Check in the help for more details but, basically, you should config your module in AP mode and then connect it in STA mode in the code.
Probably there still will be a problem on the IP addresses .....

Hi cicciocb,
exactly, IP address is the problem. Maybe it's a good idea to change two commands:
WIFI.APMODE SSID$, password$ [, channel] to WIFI.APMODE SSID$, password$ [, IP address, mask]
and
WIFI.CONNECT SSID$, password$ [, BSSID$] to WIFI.CONNECT SSID$, password$ [, IP address, mask [,gateway]]
instead of IP address, mask the notation IPaddress/mask length might be easier.
Cheers
Ulli
