I wish I had answers to all of your questions because I'm currently struggling with similar issues.
After many hours I was finally able to connect to the desired network using this approach:
val wifiNetworkSpecifier = WifiNetworkSpecifier.Builder()
.setSsid(ssid)
.setWpa2Passphrase(passphrase)
.setBssid(mac)
.build()
val networkRequest = NetworkRequest.Builder()
.addTransportType(NetworkCapabilities.TRANSPORT_WIFI)
.setNetworkSpecifier(wifiNetworkSpecifier)
.build()
val connectivityManager = applicationContext.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE) as ConnectivityManager?
connectivityManager?.requestNetwork(networkRequest, ConnectivityManager.NetworkCallback())
You can receive a whole host of events through the ConnectivityManager.NetworkCallback().
