The NodeMCU WiFi control is spread across several tables:

- `wifi` for overall WiFi configuration
- [`wifi.sta`](#wifista-module) for station mode functions
- [`wifi.ap`](#wifiap-module) for wireless access point (WAP or simply AP) functions
- [`wifi.ap.dhcp`](#wifiapdhcp-module) for DHCP server control
- [`wifi.eventmon`](#wifieventmon-module) for wifi event monitor

## wifi.getchannel()

Gets the current WiFi channel.

#### Syntax
`wifi.getchannel()`

#### Parameters
`nil`

#### Returns
current WiFi channel

## wifi.getmode()

Gets WiFi operation mode.

#### Syntax
`wifi.getmode()`

#### Parameters
`nil`

#### Returns
The WiFi mode, as one of the `wifi.STATION`, `wifi.SOFTAP`, `wifi.STATIONAP` or `wifi.NULLMODE` constants.

#### See also
[`wifi.setmode()`](#wifisetmode)

## wifi.getphymode()

Gets WiFi physical mode.

#### Syntax
`wifi.getphymode()`

#### Parameters
none

#### Returns
The current physical mode as one of `wifi.PHYMODE_B`, `wifi.PHYMODE_G` or `wifi.PHYMODE_N`.

#### See also
[`wifi.setphymode()`](#wifisetphymode)

## wifi.setmode()

Configures the WiFi mode to use. NodeMCU can run in one of four WiFi modes:

- Station mode, where the NodeMCU device joins an existing network
- Access point (AP) mode, where it creates its own network that others can join
- Station + AP mode, where it both creates its own network while at the same time being joined to another existing network
- WiFi off

When using the combined Station + AP mode, the same channel will be used for both networks as the radio can only listen on a single channel.

NOTE: WiFi Mode configuration will be retained until changed even if device is turned off. 

#### Syntax
`wifi.setmode(mode)`

#### Parameters
`mode` value should be one of

- `wifi.STATION` for when the device is connected to a WiFi router. This is often done to give the device access to the Internet.
- `wifi.SOFTAP` for when the device is acting *only* as an access point. This will allow you to see the device in the list of WiFi networks (unless you hide the SSID, of course). In this mode your computer can connect to the device, creating a local area network. Unless you change the value, the NodeMCU device will be given a local IP address of 192.168.4.1 and assign your computer the next available IP address, such as 192.168.4.2.
- `wifi.STATIONAP` is the combination of `wifi.STATION` and `wifi.SOFTAP`. It allows you to create a local WiFi connection *and* connect to another WiFi router.
- `wifi.NULLMODE` to switch off WiFi

#### Returns
current mode after setup

#### Example
```lua
wifi.setmode(wifi.STATION)
```

[`wifi.getmode()`](#wifigetmode)

Intended for use with SmartConfig apps, such as Espressif's [Android & iOS app](https://github.com/espressifapp).

Only usable in `wifi.STATION` mode.

!!! important

    SmartConfig is disabled by default and can be enabled by setting `WIFI_SMART_ENABLE` in [`user_config.h`](https://github.com/nodemcu/nodemcu-firmware/blob/dev/app/include/user_config.h#L96) before you build the firmware.

#### Syntax
`wifi.startsmart(type, callback)`

#### Parameters
- `type` 0 for ESP\_TOUCH, or 1 for AIR\_KISS.
- `callback` a callback function of the form `function(ssid, password) end` which gets called after configuration.

#### Returns
`nil`

#### Example

```lua
wifi.setmode(wifi.STATION)
wifi.startsmart(0,
	function(ssid, password)
		print(string.format("Success. SSID:%s ; PASSWORD:%s", ssid, password))
	end
)
```

## wifi.sta.config()

Sets the WiFi station configuration.

NOTE: Station configuration will be retained until changed even if device is turned off. 

#### Syntax
`wifi.sta.config(ssid, password[, auto[, bssid]])`

#### Parameters

- `ssid` string which is less than 32 bytes.
- `password` string which is 8-64 or 0 bytes. Empty string indicates an open WiFi access point.
- `auto` defaults to 1
	- 0 to disable auto connect and remain disconnected from access point
	- 1 to enable auto connect and connect to access point, hence with `auto=1` there's no need to call [`wifi.sta.connect()`](#wifistaconnect) later
- `bssid` string that contains the MAC address of the access point (optional)
	- You can set BSSID if you have multiple access points with the same SSID.
 	- Note: if you set BSSID for a specific SSID and would like to configure station to connect to the same SSID only without the BSSID requirement, you MUST first configure to station to a different SSID first, then connect to the desired SSID
 	- The following formats are valid:
		- "DE-C1-A5-51-F1-ED"
		- "AC-1D-1C-B1-0B-22"
		- "DE AD BE EF 7A C0"

-- Connect to Unsecured access point automatically when in range, `auto` defaults to 1
wifi.sta.config("myssid", "")
  
-- Connect to access point, User decides when to connect/disconnect to/from AP due to `auto=0`
wifi.sta.config("myssid", "mypassword", 0)
wifi.sta.connect()
