I sadly don't have a solution for you, but here is what i tried already:  
You can add the Wifi using WifiNetworkSuggestion, but there is [no notification for the user](https://forum.magicleap.cloud/t/issues-with-wifi-suggestion-android-api/2213) to confirm the connection so it has no real effect.

You can connect to the wifi by creating a NetworkRequest, which works in that the user gets a popup and the ML2 connects while the app is open, however i had no sucess in sending/recieving anything on the network/internet.

> WifiNetworkSpecifier wifiNetworkSpecifier = getWifiNetworkSpecifier(ssid, password);
> builder.setNetworkSpecifier(wifiNetworkSpecifier);
> NetworkRequest networkRequest = builder.build();
> 
> RegisterCallback();

> connectivityManager.requestNetwork(networkRequest, callback);
