Qnetwork Manager show available SSID's

Markus Ippy

i am trying to use QNetwork to scan for available WLAN SSID's

Here is my test programm that just outputs debug messages for now . The main aim was to show which Wifi networks are in range on Linux.
I have a few issues :
On Linux :
Bearer Type for wlan0 and eth0 is shown as 1 (Ethernet) , i was expecting it to be 2 (WLan) for wlan0

i was under the impression that x.name would give me the SSID's whats the correct command to get the SSiD's )

main.cpp :

#include "mainwindow.h"
#include <QApplication>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
MainWindow w;
w.show();
return a.exec();
}

my mainwindow.cpp :

#include "mainwindow.h"
#include <QDebug>

MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent)
: QWidget(parent)
{

findTimer = new QTimer();
findTimer->setInterval(1000);
connect(findTimer,&QTimer::timeout,this,&MainWindow::findActiveWirelesses);
findTimer->start();
foundCount = 0;
findActiveWirelesses();
}

void MainWindow::findActiveWirelesses()
{
QNetworkConfigurationManager ncm;
netcfgList = ncm.allConfigurations();
WiFisList.clear();
for (auto &x : netcfgList)
{
    qDebug() << "Type:" << x.bearerType() << "Name: " << x.name();
    // on Linux This returns :
    //              Type: 1 Name:  "eth0"
    //              Type: 1 Name:  "wlan0"
    
    // on Windows This returns :
    //              Type: 0 Name:  "Celluar"
    //              Type: 1 Name:  "Ethernet"
    if (x.bearerType() == QNetworkConfiguration::BearerWLAN)
    {
        //This does nothing as the bearerType stays 1 on linux and 0 or 1 on Windows
        if(x.name() == "")
            WiFisList << "Unknown(Other Network)";
        else
            WiFisList << x.name();
    }
}
for(int i=0; i<WiFisList.size(); i++)
{
    bool exist = false;
    qDebug() << "Show wifi List size " << WiFisList.size();
   
}
}
