How do I get the available wifi APs and their signal strength in .net?

Question

Is there any way to access all WiFi access points and their respective RSSI values using .NET? It would be really nice if I could do it without using unmanaged code or even

Answer 1

If the platform is Windows10, you can use Microsoft.Windows.SDK.Contracts package to access all available wifis.

First, install Microsoft.Windows.SDK.Contracts package from nuget.

Then, you can use next code to get ssid and signal strength.

var adapters = await WiFiAdapter.FindAllAdaptersAsync();
foreach (var adapter in adapters)
{
    foreach (var network in adapter.NetworkReport.AvailableNetworks)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"ssid: {network.Ssid}");
        Console.WriteLine($"signal strength: {network.SignalBars}");
    }
}
