【Feedback】Scanning for Specific AP

[Veeda]

Hello,

I was wondering if it is possible to scan for a specific AP?

Please provide an example, as my attempt to use wifi_station_scan does not work...

Thanks,
Zero

Hi，

Here is a demo of scan APs http://bbs.espressif.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=229&p=839

Faye,

It works, but it seems to take quite sometime to scan and return the AP's information.

Would it be possible to scan in ms time?

Thanks,

Hi,

If you didn't set a specific channel to scan the target AP, it will scan all channels to find the target AP, that may take a long time.

But if you know the target channel that your target AP is in, set parameter "channel" in struct "scan_config" to run wifi_station_scan, it will be faster.
