|
||||
|
||||
class WLAN -- control built-in WiFi interfaces
|
||||
==============================================
|
||||
|
||||
This class provides a driver for WiFi network processors. Example usage::
|
||||
|
||||
import network
|
||||
# enable station interface and connect to WiFi access point
|
||||
nic = network.WLAN(network.STA_IF)
|
||||
nic.active(True)
|
||||
nic.connect('your-ssid', 'your-password')
|
||||
# now use sockets as usual
|
||||
|
||||
Constructors
|
||||
------------
|
||||
.. class:: WLAN(interface_id)
|
||||
|
||||
Create a WLAN network interface object. Supported interfaces are
|
||||
``network.STA_IF`` (station aka client, connects to upstream WiFi access
|
||||
points) and ``network.AP_IF`` (access point, allows other WiFi clients to
|
||||
connect). Availability of the methods below depends on interface type.
|
||||
For example, only STA interface may `WLAN.connect()` to an access point.
|
||||
|
||||
Methods
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: WLAN.active([is_active])
|
||||
|
||||
Activate ("up") or deactivate ("down") network interface, if boolean
|
||||
argument is passed. Otherwise, query current state if no argument is
|
||||
provided. Most other methods require active interface.
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: WLAN.connect(ssid=None, password=None, *, bssid=None)
|
||||
|
||||
Connect to the specified wireless network, using the specified password.
|
||||
If *bssid* is given then the connection will be restricted to the
|
||||
access-point with that MAC address (the *ssid* must also be specified
|
||||
in this case).
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: WLAN.disconnect()
|
||||
|
||||
Disconnect from the currently connected wireless network.
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: WLAN.scan()
|
||||
|
||||
Scan for the available wireless networks.
|
||||
Hidden networks -- where the SSID is not broadcast -- will also be scanned
|
||||
if the WLAN interface allows it.
|
||||
|
||||
Scanning is only possible on STA interface. Returns list of tuples with
|
||||
the information about WiFi access points:
|
||||
|
||||
(ssid, bssid, channel, RSSI, authmode, hidden)
|
||||
|
||||
*bssid* is hardware address of an access point, in binary form, returned as
|
||||
bytes object. You can use `binascii.hexlify()` to convert it to ASCII form.
|
||||
|
||||
There are five values for authmode:
|
||||
|
||||
* 0 -- open
|
||||
* 1 -- WEP
|
||||
* 2 -- WPA-PSK
|
||||
* 3 -- WPA2-PSK
|
||||
* 4 -- WPA/WPA2-PSK
|
||||
|
||||
and two for hidden:
|
||||
|
||||
* 0 -- visible
|
||||
* 1 -- hidden
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: WLAN.status([param])
|
||||
|
||||
Return the current status of the wireless connection.
|
||||
|
||||
When called with no argument the return value describes the network link status.
|
||||
The possible statuses are defined as constants:
|
||||
|
||||
* ``STAT_IDLE`` -- no connection and no activity,
|
||||
* ``STAT_CONNECTING`` -- connecting in progress,
|
||||
* ``STAT_WRONG_PASSWORD`` -- failed due to incorrect password,
|
||||
* ``STAT_NO_AP_FOUND`` -- failed because no access point replied,
|
||||
* ``STAT_CONNECT_FAIL`` -- failed due to other problems,
|
||||
* ``STAT_GOT_IP`` -- connection successful.
|
||||
|
||||
When called with one argument *param* should be a string naming the status
|
||||
parameter to retrieve. Supported parameters in WiFI STA mode are: ``'rssi'``.
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: WLAN.isconnected()
|
||||
|
||||
In case of STA mode, returns ``True`` if connected to a WiFi access
|
||||
point and has a valid IP address. In AP mode returns ``True`` when a
|
||||
station is connected. Returns ``False`` otherwise.
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: WLAN.ifconfig([(ip, subnet, gateway, dns)])
|
||||
|
||||
Get/set IP-level network interface parameters: IP address, subnet mask,
|
||||
gateway and DNS server. When called with no arguments, this method returns
|
||||
a 4-tuple with the above information. To set the above values, pass a
|
||||
4-tuple with the required information. For example::
|
||||
|
||||
nic.ifconfig(('192.168.0.4', '255.255.255.0', '192.168.0.1', '8.8.8.8'))
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: WLAN.config('param')
|
||||
WLAN.config(param=value, ...)
|
||||
|
||||
Get or set general network interface parameters. These methods allow to work
|
||||
with additional parameters beyond standard IP configuration (as dealt with by
|
||||
`WLAN.ifconfig()`). These include network-specific and hardware-specific
|
||||
parameters. For setting parameters, keyword argument syntax should be used,
|
||||
multiple parameters can be set at once. For querying, parameters name should
|
||||
be quoted as a string, and only one parameter can be queries at time::
|
||||
|
||||
# Set WiFi access point name (formally known as ESSID) and WiFi channel
|
||||
ap.config(essid='My AP', channel=11)
|
||||
# Query params one by one
|
||||
print(ap.config('essid'))
|
||||
print(ap.config('channel'))
|
||||
|
||||
Following are commonly supported parameters (availability of a specific parameter
|
||||
depends on network technology type, driver, and :term:`MicroPython port`).
