#52392 I'm after basically the same information, although i'd like to scan just channels 1, 6, & 11.
Not 1 through to 11 (or 13).
I think when scanning all channels, it would need to pause for at least 100mS per channel,
(beacon interval time per access points is usually 100mS) and a bit of time to settle also, so i can see why scanning the range takes approx 2 seconds.
If i could scan only the three channels, then possibly half a second is do-able?

I *suspect* it may be possible as this:
https://nodemcu.readthedocs.io/en/dev/e ... fistagetap
"channel channel == 0, scan all channels, otherwise scan set channel (default is 0)"

looks like it can be done in Lua, unfortunately i'm not much of a programmer, so could do with some help
in Arduino if this is perhaps possible.
(hint* i date from the time of Z80 and 6800 machine code)

ANY pointers, tips appreciated, thanks!
