                          // Check if connected to WiFi
                          var connectivityResult = await (Connectivity().checkConnectivity());
                          log("ConnectivityResult====> $connectivityResult");
                          var _net = NetworkInfo();
                          String? ssid = await _net.getWifiName();
                          log("SSID: $ssid");
                          if (connectivityResult[0] != ConnectivityResult.wifi) {
                            log("Wificonectionn====> false");
                          } else {
                            log("Wificonectionn====> true");
                            // Try to get the current WiFi SSID
                            String? currentWifi = await WiFiForIoTPlugin.getSSID();
                            log("SSID: $currentWifi");
                            if (currentWifi == "Jarvis") {
                              log("Device connected to Jarvis Wi-Fi!");
                            } else {
                              log("Device not connected to Jarvis Wi-Fi.");
                            }
                          }
                        } else {
                          log("Location permission denied");
                        }

I am not able to fully understand your explanation.

For what I can see, network_info_plus returns null as SSID. What is the other plugin WiFiForIoTPlugin.getSSID() returning you? From your log it says <unknown ssid>, which doesn't look good either.

Do you have

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />

in your Android manifest?

BTree-dev1 commented 2 weeks ago

Yes I have ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission in manifest. Even though I didn't get the SSID. I tried network_info_plus package first that gives me null, After that I tried wifi_iot packages that too give me <unknown ssid> But When I this android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true" in my manifest I'm able to get the SSID.

Is this a correct fix ?

miquelbeltran commented 2 weeks ago

That's so weird :)

I have no idea why would the storage permissions affect the WIFI name permissions.

Bheck890 commented 2 weeks ago

I get the same issue, i am working on an old tablet, and it also does not work, I even added the storage permission and it did not work.

also why are all the tests failing in the action area. for network info plus

miquelbeltran commented 2 weeks ago

Can you specify which tests exactly?

Integration tests are flaky due to emulator taking too long to start on GitHub Actions.

miquelbeltran commented 2 weeks ago

I just ran the example app on my device, and it works for me, I can see the Wi-Fi Name, BSSID, etc.

Can you try with the example app in the repo, as provided, and see if you get the same results?

Bheck890 commented 2 weeks ago

i tried again, just found out the location permission was not enabled, for that specific app, sorry

so this actions error list is normal? https://github.com/fluttercommunity/plus_plugins/actions/workflows/network_info_plus.yaml

Depends on the job. Like I said, many of the integration_test runs on Android fail because of the emulator starting issues.

If there is a specific job you would like to know more, let me know.

Otherwise, I'd ask you to keep a positive and professional attitude when interacting with the team.
