You can start with the following two options. 1. Use GetDevices, find the appropriate wireless device and then call ActiveAccessPoint on that device. 2. Get the ActiveConnections property. Get the devices that are part of this active connection (Devices property). You will get the wireless device object path. Then call ActiveAccessPoint on that device and get the Ssid property. Please understand that Ssid is not a property of a network interface/device in your computer. It is not so complicated. Please find the python samples. http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/tree/examples/python Regards, Jos Collin > and: > dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager > /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/AccessPoint/7 > org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.Get string:org.freedesktop.NetworkManager > string:ssid > > you'll get > method return sender=:1.264 -> dest=:1.291 reply_serial=2 >variant array of bytes "THE_SSID" > And after that I have to convert the array of bytes into a simple string.

RE: How to get the ESSID of the active wifi network?
Hello, I believe that "the current network" is the one which is Active. Replace /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/eth1 with the object path of the ActiveAccessPoint. Then get the Ssid property of that ActiveAccessPoint.

But it is a bit problematic for 0.8.x, because of user connections. With 0.9 everything is simplified, and this usecase is much easier due to AddAndActivateConnection() D-Bus call. Nevertheless, thanks for the report. Jirka ___ networkmanager-list mailing list networkmanager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
