Hi, I would like to scan the MAC address of WIFI client, including smartphone, tablet, etc.... but I only find the command of scanNetwork (SSID). any sample code or command for client MAC address scanning?

Thx

You can get it using wifi_softap_get_station_info() function, as I've explained in the following thread :

Dear Martin,

Thx a lot for the information. I tried the code and it shows connected devices, what about the non-connected WIFI devices. I am trying to scan all the surrounding non-connected WIFI devices and print their Mac address and signal strengthen if possible.

The above link provided scan for connected stations, right !
Similar scan for APs is already provided by SDK.
But, scanning unconnected stations is impossible since they don't broadcast their MAC.
