Wi-Fi sample

Overview

This sample allows testing Wi-Fi drivers for various boards by enabling the Wi-Fi shell module that provides a set of commands: scan, connect, and disconnect. It also enables the net_shell module to verify net_if settings.

Building and Running

Verify the board and chip you are targeting provide Wi-Fi support.

For instance, Atmel’s Winc1500 chip is supported on top of quark_se_c1000_devboard board.

# On Linux/macOS
