The Wi-Fi Framework is the Software Developer Kit (SDK) that provides easy access to the Wi-Fi features on Windows platforms. It supports native Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi Direct technologies, allows capturing (sniffing) raw Wi-Fi packets. The Wi-Fi Framework is a part of the Wireless Communication Library but can be used as a standalone library.

Unlike the standard Windows Wireless API, the Wi-Fi Framework includes a number of unique features, such as: capturing raw Wi-Fi packets, detecting connection and disconnection of Wi-Fi Direct devices when running in SoftAP mode, reading IP addresses for Wi-Fi devices, and more. Using the Wi-Fi Framework, you can easily turn your computer into a Wi-Fi access point. The Wi-Fi Framework supports both the legacy Wi-Fi Hosted Network technology and the modern Wi-Fi Direct Soft AP. For both, the Wi-Fi Framework implements features not supported by the standard Windows WLAN API: the ability to disconnect devices connected to the access point and the ability to impose restrictions on connecting devices. The Black and White lists build in the wclWiFiSoftAP class provides an easy way to control acceptable devices for your Wi-Fi Software Access Point.

In addition to Wi-Fi functionality, the Wi-Fi Framework includes a Network List Manager, the class that allows you to manage Windows networks, determine the connection type (local or Internet), and much more. Additionally, the Wi-Fi Framework enables you to retrieve a list of all network adapters installed on the computer and obtain their MAC and IP addresses.

The Wi-Fi Framework includes numerous demonstration applications that will help you quickly start developing your application with Wi-Fi features. Additionally, on our website you can find detailed articles to assist you in working with the Wi-Fi Framework. Using the Wi-Fi Framework instead of native Microsoft Wireless API will drastically reduce your development time, resulting in significant cost savings for your project.

Below you can find the full features list of the Wi-Fi Framework. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Demo version limitations

• The "Unregistered version" warning dialog appears when you start an application that uses the Wi-Fi Framework.
• You cannot use the demo version for developing free or commercial applications.
• You cannot use the demo version for developing applications for your own needs.
• The demo version is for trial use only.

The Wi-Fi Framework demo version can be downloaded as an executable installer (EXE link) or as a 7Zip archive (ZIP link). The executable installer is not signed, so you may see a Windows warning when running the installer. To avoid this you can use the 7Zip packed version. Please refer to this article to find information about how to install the 7Zip packed version for your IDE. If you are experiencing any installation issue, please contact us.
