Detect wifi router name

Hi could you please help me, I would like to detect Wifi router name in LabVIEW so I should be able to search and detect wifi router names arround. Could you please let me know how can I do it in LabVIEW. For example for bluetooth there is  "Bluetooth Discover.vi" . Is there anything like this for WLAN

Thanks

You should be able to do it through command prompt which means using System Exec.vi.  Microsoft has a list of all the commands which are used to manage wireless network profiles ( http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows-8/manage-wireless-network-profiles ) that you could use.

system exec will give you most info you would want but if you want to connect to it i had to use c# as labview couldnt interface with the windows libraies nicely (I suspect it can be done but it was beyond me)

Please remember to accept any solutions and give kudos, Thanks
