This article describes the Beetle ESP32 C6 WIFI hotspot scanning function.

1. Code preparation

1. Initialize the serial port, set the WIFI to STA mode, and actively disconnect the WIFI

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);

  // Set WiFi to station mode and disconnect from an AP if it was previously connected.
  WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
  WiFi.disconnect();
  delay(100);

  Serial.println("Setup done");
}

2. Start the WIFI scan and print out the scan results. The scan results include the number of scanned, WIFI name SSID, signal strength rssi, channel CH and encryption type Encryption, all of which are printed out accordingly. After the scan, delete the wifi scan memory and scan once every 5 seconds.

void loop() {
  Serial.println("Scan start");

  // WiFi.scanNetworks will return the number of networks found.
  int n = WiFi.scanNetworks();
  Serial.println("Scan done");
  if (n == 0) {
    Serial.println("no networks found");
  } else {
    Serial.print(n);
    Serial.println(" networks found");
    Serial.println("Nr | SSID                             | RSSI | CH | Encryption");
    for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
      // Print SSID and RSSI for each network found
      Serial.printf("%2d", i + 1);
      Serial.print(" | ");
      Serial.printf("%-32.32s", WiFi.SSID(i).c_str());
      Serial.print(" | ");
      Serial.printf("%4ld", WiFi.RSSI(i));
      Serial.print(" | ");
      Serial.printf("%2ld", WiFi.channel(i));
      Serial.print(" | ");
      switch (WiFi.encryptionType(i)) {
        case WIFI_AUTH_OPEN:            Serial.print("open"); break;
        case WIFI_AUTH_WEP:             Serial.print("WEP"); break;
        case WIFI_AUTH_WPA_PSK:         Serial.print("WPA"); break;
        case WIFI_AUTH_WPA2_PSK:        Serial.print("WPA2"); break;
        case WIFI_AUTH_WPA_WPA2_PSK:    Serial.print("WPA+WPA2"); break;
        case WIFI_AUTH_WPA2_ENTERPRISE: Serial.print("WPA2-EAP"); break;
        case WIFI_AUTH_WPA3_PSK:        Serial.print("WPA3"); break;
        case WIFI_AUTH_WPA2_WPA3_PSK:   Serial.print("WPA2+WPA3"); break;
        case WIFI_AUTH_WAPI_PSK:        Serial.print("WAPI"); break;
        default:                        Serial.print("unknown");
      }
      Serial.println();
      delay(10);
    }
  }
  Serial.println("");

  // Delete the scan result to free memory for code below.
  WiFi.scanDelete();

  // Wait a bit before scanning again.
  delay(5000);
}

2. Compile and burn test

After compiling, burning and running, you can see that WIFI is scanned every 5 seconds and the scan information is printed out.

So far, the WIFI scanning function of Beetle ESP32 C6 has been debugged and tested.
