I can't get wifi list when I use wifi.scan().

[kamelorac]

Expected behavior

If I use wifi.scan(), I will get wifi list. networks = [ { ssid: '...', bssid: '...', mac: '...', // equals to bssid (for retrocompatibility) channel: , frequency: , // in MHz signal_level: , // in dB quality: , // same as signal level but in % security: 'WPA WPA2' // format depending on locale for open networks in Windows security_flags: '...' // encryption protocols (format currently depending of the OS) mode: '...' // network mode like Infra (format currently depending of the OS) }, ... ];
