WifiInfo does not, but WifiConfiguration does. In theory, you could find the WifiConfiguration matching the SSID/hidden SSID/BSSID of the WifiInfo and determine what the configuration is in terms of encryption. In practice: -- WifiConfiguration tells you what was possible, not what was negotiated for this connection -- I don't know how well this works for campus-style settings, with lots of access points advertising the same SSID Unless there is something that I am missing, this feels like a hole in the API. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _Android Programming Tutorials_ Version 4.1 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
