Depending on what kind of information you need, you might also use the python wireless tools bindings (pyiw http://www.emperorlinux.com/etc/contrib/?page=pyiw). I have successfully compiled and used them on the Sharp Zaurus (http://geek-fr.com/blog/python_qt_wifi_and_the_zaurus).
In 15 minutes with Python you can make your Wifi network scanner and post the results to a server. Nicolas. On 1/31/07, kalle ahokangas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi all, I'm developing an application to Nokia 770 which scans available network infomation and then sends collected infomation to server. I'm using modifed wireless tools ( http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Tools.html) wlist source which works fine and I can get all WLAN netwok information I need, but I can't send them to server because in order to get the scanning to work the current working network connection must be disconnected. If I use script to connect to network automatically the problem still exists: #!/bin/sh source /usr/bin/connectivity_preload .sh ./wifiscan If I have network setup I cant perform scanning iwlist prints'Interface doesn't support scanning'. This is because function iw_get_range_info in iwlib.c returns !=1. My questions are: 1. Is there a way to get scanning to work while the network connection is on? 2. If not what is the best solution to implement requested functionality (scan network -> send information to server)? 3. How does N800 work in this scenario? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. - Kalle _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
