Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC3100MOD,
Tool/software: Linux
Hi all,
I'm struggling to get what I need for an analytic application. For analyse purpose, I need to get the wifi access point information's and put a timestamp from when it was discovered in realtime. So I'll need to do scanning in loop and when the module receive the information of any access point I need to receive it. For now, any tool I have tried only give me response after the scan was complete. So I receive access point in batch. I have worked with the CC3100MOD before and with this one I was able to do scanning and output the access point as soon as it receive it. But this module was not sufficient in term of feature.
I have tried some application (NetworkManager / iw / airodump-ng ) but each one is talking to the nl80211 layer that seem to work that way for getting the result of the access point.
I have digged down to the wlcore/wl18xx driver layer to see what's happening and it seem that the driver is sending a CMD_SCAN request and receive the results by the event maillbox.
Did I miss something or there's no way to obtain what I need from this module? Did I need to get access to the wl1837mod firmware to do what I need?
Thanks in advance.
