Question

As the title says, I want to get the wireless signal strength from adapter on Windows CE, VB.Net, Visual studio 2008.

I believe opennetcf.net library has to be used.

Was it helpful?

Solution

I'm not going to write any code for you but maybe I can at least point you in the right direction. In the beta documentation for OpenNETCF.Net.NetworkInformation you'll see a class called WirelessNetworkInterface which has a SignalStrength property which returns a SignalStrength object.

OTHER TIPS

I found what was the problem. I tried to program it on Motorola MC3190 hand scanner with some stupid Motorola Jedi Wireless Drivers which are identifying the interface as ethernet instead of wireless and this is the reason why tehere is no such option. I also tried few versions of Motorola EMDK's, but those are also not working with MC3190.
