Which part of WifiInfo can be used to distinguish every unique access point in a big WLAN? BSSID or MAC address?

Solution

  • BSSID of access point is essential to every device.

    You should get a WifiManager instance and then call 

    wifiMgr.getConnectionInfo().getBSSID()

    to retrieve the BSSID as a string, it is just the MAC address of your AP, format like 0C:DE:AD:1F:00:32
