================
Service net.connman.iwd
Interface net.connman.iwd.Device [Experimental]
Object path /{phy0,phy1,...}/{1,2,...}
Methods void Scan()
Schedule a network scan.
Possible errors: net.connman.iwd.Busy
new.connman.iwd.Failed
void Disconnect()
Disconnect from the network
Possible errors: net.connman.iwd.Busy
new.connman.iwd.Failed
new.connman.iwd.NotConnected
array(osns) GetOrderedNetworks()
Return the list of networks found in the most recent
scan, sorted by their user interface importance
score as calculated by iwd. If the device is
currently connected to a network, that network is
always first on the list, followed by any known
networks that have been used at least once before,
followed by any other known networks and any other
detected networks as the last group. Within these
groups the maximum relative signal-strength is the
main sorting factor.
Every record returned contains a 4-tuple of the
following values.
object Object
net.connman.iwd.Network object representing
the network.
string Name
Contains the Name (SSID) of the network
int16 SignalStrength
Network's maximum signal strength expressed
in 100 * dBm. The value is the range of 0
(strongest signal) to -10000 (weakest signal)
string Type
Contains the type of the network. Possible
types are "open", "psk", "8021x" (EAP)
Properties string Name [readonly]
Device's interface name
string Address [readonly]
Interface's hardware address in the XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
format
object ConnectedNetwork [readonly, optional]
net.connman.iwd.Network object representing the
network the device is currently connected to
boolean Powered [readwrite]
True if the interface is UP. If false, the device's
radio is powered down and no other actions can
be performed on the device.
boolean Scanning [readonly]
Reflects whether the device is currently scanning
for networks. net.connman.iwd.Network objects are
updated when this property goes from true to false.
