Wifi Direct Peers IP for Android

463 views

I wanted to know if there is a way that make the group owner (group owner is the device who called this method wManager.createGroup() ) know the peers IPs to be able to send data to them over these IPs? and if there is no implemented way in WiFi-direct API to do this issue, can you tell me how I can solve this problem?

Reconnecting to the wifi automatically for Android device?

The Settings application takes care of showing up an interface which helps to connect to a WIFI. Switching off the router will disconnect the phone from WIFI.
Now, on switching the router back on, who takes care of reconnecting to this WIFI automatically? Is it the Settings application or is it done at the framework level?

Wi-Fi Direct, connection issue with more than two android devices

Using Wi-Fi direct, I've been able to connect two devices together and pass messages between them. However, when I try to have a third device connect to this group, the WFD connection between the first and second devices either drops, or the third device seems to be ignored.
I haven't been able to find anything specific about one-to-many connections in the documentation. Do they need to be handled in a special way?

Connecting to an Android device via WiFi

I have Ubuntu 12.04 and I can connect to my Android device via USB. I installed MTP support and it works fine, as it seems.

Also, my Ubuntu computer and the Android device is connected to the Internet via WiFi. Is there an easy way to connect them to each other via WiFi for easy file sharing? A step by step instruction would be nice, as I am not even sure where to start.
