how to get wifi signal strength 2008/04/03 17:43 Karma: 0  
Hi,
I am a newbie to Java on mobile devices and I have been looking on this and other websites about how to detect the wi-fi signal strength from Java. Is it possible with any of the Java tehnologies (like JV-Lite2, J2ME, and others)?
Thanks in advance.

hi hardik_982, thank you very much for your reply.

I had looked at Sun's Java wireless toolkit, but I found nothing in there about signal strength or anything 802.11 related. They do have a Location API (which I think works with cell towers, so no wifi either).

I didn't know about superwaba and I looked at their API docs:
http://www.superwaba.org/doc/overview-tree.html

However, nothing there as well regarding 802.11 information of any kind.

The only thing so far is JWRAPI for PocketPC, but I was really looking for something more generic: http://www.sm.luth.se/~johank/javawrapi/

It seems weird you can't access device wifi information from Java in a device agnostic way...
