I am looking for an API that will allow me to manipulate wireless hardware very near the metal. For example, I would like to be able to build an application that simultaneously connects to multiple peers (physically close peers) as well as some access point like a legacy Wifi Router.

Is there any such library?

You will be limited by the recent FCC ruling that prohibits router manufactures from allowing the consumer access to the diver level functions specifically for 5Ghz.

Because of this you may want to use a older router with OpenWrt. OpenWRT should allow you the ability to configure the router in a variety of ways.

  • I don't think so because I'm not trying to upload any new firmware to routers, I am just looking for an API that will allow me to connect to multiple routers if possible. – jojeyh Nov 14 '17 at 23:13
