How to get SSID and RSSI for Win7 using C#

Question

I am very new to Win7 and WMI. Please advice me where to see for active access point from WiFi and how to get ssid/rssi for each access point.

I have use:

ManagementClass mc = new ManagementClass("root\\WMI", "MSNdis_80211_ServiceSetIdentifier", null);          
ManagementObjectSearcher searcher1 = new ManagementObjectSearcher(@"root\wmi","SELECT * FROM MSNdis_80211_BSSIList");

but I got 0 results. Is this class support Win7? Anybody can help?

Answer 1

Instead of WMI you can use the Managed Wifi API.

Some time a go i wrote an example using delphi-prism, is very similar to C#. http://theroadtodelphi.wordpress.com/2009/09/30/detecting-wifi-networks-using-delphi-prism/
