  • 0

Ive discovered that several android wifi-apps (WiFi Manager, WiFi Analyzer) shows a channel number of WiFi network additionally to BSSID/SSID etc. But I can’t find any info on how they do it. The only thing I know is I can get some wifi frequency. Maybe they determine a channel corresponding to that frequency? Is there a way to detect channel of wifi network in android at all? Of course this info is not a big deal and I can live without it 🙂 but still i’m curious…
