How to read the MAC of an Access Point

[goodjonx]

Hey All,

I haven't done any Java programming in a while and now I have a question I just can't seem find an answer to using searches:

Is there an (easy?) way in Java to get the hardware address (MAC) of the access point I'm associated with?

I need to be able to identify the wireless access points in my network from the client side (applet) so that I can roughly get the position..

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

I dont think it is possible without a JNI interface to a native call.

Neah ! i dont think that it would be possible...

Applet is not allowed to create any connection to any other resource except from where it is created....
