How is the nearby Wi-Fi list on the phone generated during provisioning? How do I change the number of entries shown? What information does each entry include?

  • The list is generated by the device scanning nearby access points in Wi-Fi station mode.
  • The number of entries can be configured via: 
    idf.py menuconfig
      → Component config
        → Network Provisioning Manager
          → [16] Max Network Scan Result Entries
    A higher count increases peak memory usage.
  • Each entry includes: SSID, channel, signal strength (RSSI), BSSID, and encryption type.
