Hi all,
I am completely new to arduino. I'm currently working on a school project which requires me to collect rssi, ssid, bssid from the available Access Points and send it to a server. Is there any way I could develop such a product using arduino? This should all be wireless.
Thx in advance
You will need a WiFi interface in addition to the Arduino. You may also want an SD card in case you get more data than can fit in SRAM before you find a network you can connect to for upload.
The data won't be of much use unless you also have GPS coordinates.
Use Arduino Yun;-
iwlist wlan0 scan |grep 'Channel:\|Address:\|Quality\|ESSID'
Cell 01 - Address: D8:50:E6:D7:EA:1E
Channel:8
Quality=70/70 Signal level=-15 dBm
ESSID:"ASUS"
...
Cell 21 - Address: 28:92:4A:BB:21:A5
Channel:6
Quality=22/70 Signal level=-88 dBm
ESSID:"HP-Print-A5-Officejet Pro 8600"
