Send 802.11 frames with ESP32 without any restrictions

Postby Saskia » Thu Dec 14, 2017 1:19 pm

Is it now possible to send 802.11 frames without restrictions?

Some months ago it wasn't possible to send specific frames (except e.g. beacon frames). And if yes, how? Does someone has a minimal example for this?

No, this is not currently possible.

It is possible to hackily call esp_wifi_internal_tx() to send 802.11 data frames (only), as if they were being sent by the LWIP TCP/IP stack. This isn't a supported use of this undocumented internal API, though.

There are some plans to expand the documented 802.11 raw frame functionality in future ESP-IDF releases, but there is no ETA for this yet.
