Access Point Scanning

[burrito]

I'm trying to make a wifi access point scanning app:

Code: Select all

red = Color.new(255,0,0)
white = Color.new(255,255,255)
gray = Color.new(190,190,190)

while true do
screen.waitVblankStart()
screen.flip()

screen:print(25,15, "Router Name",red)
screen:print(195,15, "Strength",red)
screen:print(365,15, "Encryption",red)
screen:print(0,25, "------------------------------------------------------------",red)
screen:print(15,255, "Battery:",gray)
screen:print(110,255, "%",gray)

System.powerIsPowerOnline()
System.powerIsBatteryExist()
percent = System.powerGetBatteryLifePercent()
screen:print(100,255, percent,gray)

Wlan.init()
nametable = Wlan.getConnectionConfigs(2)
nametable = {a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i}

screen:print(25, 30, nametable.a,white)
screen:print(25, 40, nametable.b,white)
screen:print(25, 50, nametable.c,white)
screen:print(25, 60, nametable.d,white)
screen:print(25, 70, nametable.e,white)
screen:print(25, 80, nametable.f,white)
screen:print(25, 90, nametable.g,white)
screen:print(25, 100, nametable.h,white)
screen:print(25, 110, nametable.i,white)

end
Wlan.scanTerm()

I get the error "no arguments expected" for the "nametable = Wlan.getConnectionConfigs(2)" line. How can I fix this?
And also, what are the functions for showing each access point's signal strength and encryption (wep, none, etc.)?

hi, I'm not an expert but the error is simply to the fact that Wlan.getConnectionConfigs() function doesn't require any argument, so you may use it just as:

Code: Select all

array = {}
array = Wlan.getConnectionConfigs()

Hope to been useful.
Enjoy^^

uhm.. I'm no expert either.. but I'm pretty sure that Wlan.getConnectionConfigs() gets configuration's for a network connections that has already been made. LuaPlayer as of right now I dont think has an access point scanner. Please do notify me if I'm wrong...

Wow, this forum is still alive? I thought everyone would be at the official one.

Anyway, I'll have to disappoint you. The things you name cannot be read out with luaplayer. the function returns a table with the name of each found connection. No encryption,strength or whatever
