Java Wireless API

[ssaraceni]

Hi, is there in Java any command or API for manage wireless connections?
I want to create an application for auto-scan wireless networks and manage connection profiles (password, ip...).
I'm using socket for communication between two hosts, but now I want to add a level for manage the wireless connection, to by-pass the windows XP wireless manage application.
Where can I find references or examples? Thanks.

Java can't do that (without any JNI hacking); all it can do is setup connections but it doesn't know about physical layers.

kind regards,

Jos

thanks for the reply, about setup connections what can I do with Java? Actually, I set a socket to a fixed IP with
socket = new Socket(InetAddr ess.getByName(" 192.168.1.94"), 1100);
Do you know if is possible to change wireless connected network with other languages, like VB.net or C#, or others? Thanks.

C and C++ are fine candidates for that. Of course you can use JNI if you insist that Java would be involved. btw, what do you want to do with that Socket?
