wifi

I'm trying to get RSSI or signal strength from WiFi packets. I want also RSSI from 'WiFi probe requests' (when somebody is searching for a WiFi hotspots). I managed to see it from kismet logs but that was only to make sure it is possible - I don't want to use kismet all the time. For 'full time scanning' I'm using scapy. Does anybody know where can I find the RSSI or signal strength (in dBm) from the packets sniffed with scapy? I don't know how is the whole packet built - and there are a lot of 'hex' values which I don't know how to parse/interpret. I'm sniffing on both interfaces - wlan0

can I check programmaticall wheter the android device has tethering activated? I just watched the WifiManager class. All vatraibles from the WifiInfo show the same values as iff the WIFI is turned off on the device. Thnaks, best regards Try using reflection, like so: WifiManager wifi = (WifiManager) getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE); Method[] wmMethods = wifi.getClass().getDeclaredMethods(); for(Method method: wmMethods){ if(method.getName().equals("isWifiApEnabled")) { try { method.invoke(wifi); } catch (IllegalArgumentException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } catch (IllegalAccessException e

I have already read once or twice that turn on/off wifi on a real iOS device (iPad in my case) with a UI Automation script seems not possible. I've also read that you can create a script with the target "Settings" but it seems that it's only for simulators, am I right ? Do you have any ideas or solutions for me ? Regards, dorit i was able to do so (just make sure you target application is on foremost state when doing so): var target = UIATarget.localTarget(); target.dragFromToForDuration({x:0.1, y:557.00}, {x:211.00, y:206.00}, 0.5); //to expose the actions panel on iOS target.frontMostApp()

I'm trying to creat an application that let you scan the available wifi networks, and then display them in a selectable list. To do that I tried with this code: package android.nacho.WifiScan; import java.util.List; import android.app.Activity; import android.content.BroadcastReceiver; import android.content.Context; import android.content.Intent; import android.content.IntentFilter; import android.net.wifi.ScanResult; import android.net.wifi.WifiManager; import android.os.Bundle; import android.view.Menu; import android.view.MenuItem; import android.view.View; import android.widget

I'm currently trying to connect two phones which know each other's MAC address via Wi-Fi Direct, and stumbled upon the following problem: The MAC address, which I receive from WifiManager wifiMan = (WifiManager) this .getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE); WifiInfo wifiInf = wifiMan.getConnectionInfo(); MAC_ADDRESS = wifiInf.getMacAddress(); is slightly different than the one I receive from the WifiP2pManager when discovering and requesting peers. Example: a0:xx:xx:... turns into a2:xx:xx.... Does anyone know why? I did not find any way to get the "Wi-Fi Direct MAC address", and as I thought

I am wondering what technologies are used by the new Mac OS AirDrop and if there is a way to use it on windows. You know that AirDrop is a feature that will be introduced as part of Mac OS X Lion (version 10.7), right? That version of the OS is not even out yet, and it won't be until later this summer. Furthermore, I assume that the handful of lucky developers who have a pre-release copy are under a strict non-disclosure agreement (this is Apple, and that's pretty standard policy in the industry anyway), which would keep them from giving any details about the feature in a public forum such as

My question is about private API in IOS. Is there some API to manage WiFi connection? For example I'm using Apple80211.framework to scan WiFi networks but it's unusable for connecting. My app isn't for appstore. I ran into this issue last year and after quite a bit of digging I came across a helpful example called SOLStumbler. For this app to work your device must be jailbroken. I modified SOLStumbler and threw up a sample app on github. It uses the IPConfiguration bundle to access Apple80211 framework, which allows you to associate to a network.
