Wifi Scanner

Post date: Feb 3, 2011 8:31:20 PM

Native Wifi API [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms705969(VS.85).aspx], available since Windows XP can be used to create a Wifi scanner.

Attached at the bottom of the page is an excellent translation of these headers as well as a GUI Wifi Scanner, written by RRUZ [Usage] and Architect [GUI].

This short Delphi command line snippet details how to make use of the Native Wifi headers.

Compiled: Delphi 2007

Operating System: Windows Vista
