Wifi support on Vista is fine, but Native Wifi on XP is half baked. NDIS 802.11 Wireless LAN Miniport Drivers only gets you part of the way there (e.g. network scanning). From what I've read (and tried), the 802.11 NDIS drivers on XP will not allow you to configure a wireless connection. You have to use the Native Wifi API in order to do...
Is it possible to programmatically push files to a wireless SD card - like a www.eye.fi card? I use a Mac and thought I could do this using some AppleScript - but have not found a way... Derek ...
I'm trying to collect wifi Bssid and Rssi information on Windows, and am looking for the most reliable way to do that across as many versions of Windows as possible. With Vista it's easy using Win32 calls with the Wireless LAN API. That API exists on XP SP2 (sometimes) and SP3, but as far as I can tell it doesn't support gathering Bssid ...

Like most laptops, mine (a Dell Inspiron 1420) has a small button which can be used to turn the wifi card on and off. Is there any way to detect that the radio has been turned off in a Win32 C program or service? I'm looking for a better way than to get the list of the visible access points, something that only depends on the state of th...

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 better if it worked in mono as well as .NET. If it is possible i would appriciate a code sample. Thanks Here are a few similiar stackoverflow questions i found: ...
i will be working on a project that tries to determine your position using the wifi signal strength from a few access points. i was wondering if anyone knew of any similiar projects or any articles on that topic if anyone cares: its a research project in at my university. the app is written is used as a playing ground to develop new wif...
I'd like to delve deeper into the 802.11 wireless standard and its protocols, but I don't want to wade through the lawyer-speak of the actual standard document. Can you recommend any resource I can use to learn from? An online resource would be best, but a book could work too. ...
I'm wondering if, with the G1, it's possible to force the network traffic to pass through the Wifi or through the Cell GSM network.

My iPhone application establishes a TCP connection through wifi to a remote server. However, if there is no user activity for a certain time, the device closes wifi and drops the connection. Is it possible to prevent it? I need the connection to be persistent while the application is running. Setting setIdleTimerDisabled:YES doesn't help...
I assume that the iPhone Wi-Fi hardware is able to switch between channels, since my WLAN router shows me channel 1 to 13. So that WLAN spectrum must be devided up into those, I think. I would like to observe the signal strength from a specific channel within my app. Is there a way to get this data? ...
What would be the best way to triangulate a wireless network passively. Are there tools available? Algorithms? Libraries? My goal would be to create a relative map of various objects that sends or receive signals using signal strength (DB's), signal/noise ratio, signal phase, etc. from a few location points. With enough sampling, i'm gu...
