Thank you for the reply, does basic auth return a token? it seems that basic auth works on that time but isnt persistent, i mean if i try to open another link requiring authentication i get redirected to the login.
in a git repo of an android app using w2p as a server i saw the guy connected using this route: final String url = initial + "/default/login.json?userid=" + username + "&password=" + password; but i think that was a custom function.
