#52427 Oops,

I just filed a request for this.

The wifi-scan does not publish the MAC adress just like the LUA code does.
And it is the Mac Adress I need for a project.

For me it's the Mac adresses of the Access Points in the neighbourhood. As the name may change of an access point the Mac adress will not likely change.

Any idea ???

#52507 added wifi.bssid() function. Works just like other wifi functions.

#52654 As part of my home security system I have a 2nd router on my network (linksys wrt54g+DD-WRT@150mw) as an Open AP and a program named SoftPerfect WiFi Guard that logs all STA's (smartphones) . The main road is 1/4 mile away and with this setup i can detect smartphones (trespassers) 150-200 yards out. An esp8266 open AP giving the MAC's of the STA's would be perfect for this task and possibly extend the range using solar and external antenna.

P.S. thought i read somewhere sdk has wifi promiscuous mode?
