I was wondering if its possible for the sparkcore to list wifi devices and to act on this information? Im musing over an idea about the sparkcore being able to reacts to certain wifi devices on the network. Spark.list() ?

Hi lightx - check this thread. Some of the folks have basic wifi API's working [image] Bug bounty: Kill the 'Cyan flash of death' Firmware @timb yes please do! I also found the netapp_config but AndyW beat me to posting it. …

Hi @lightx , It depends on how you want to find those devices. Most network scanning tools try to connect to a list of known ports on every IP address in their subnet. So you could write a simple firmware that tries to connect to TCP port 22 on every server on the subnet, etc, and then return a li…

ohh right so I could (if I knew enough code = nope) write something that would ping addresses x.x.x.[1-255] every so often if I find an address measure.wife signal — do something really cool based on the strength of the signal if not then go to bed ps: i would be better at coding if that woul…

Hi @lightx , Are you interested in scanning for Wifi access points? Or devices / ip addresses on the network? If you gave some examples of what you wanted to build, maybe we could help get you started with the code. :smile: I could probably make you a subnet scanning example, but I’d need to kno…

I don’t have any code. I wish… :wink: Im looking to scan devices / ip addresses on the local network that the sparkcore is on. sparkcore scans for other devices every so often if find a new ip address look to see if it know this particular ip address based on pre-registered ip address X if its …
