[Feature]: Filter Access Points by Wi-Fi Standard #603
Description
Filter Access Points by Wi-Fi Standard
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Problem
Currently, WiFiAnalyzer allows filtering access points by band (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, 6 GHz), strength,
and security. However, there is no way to filter by Wi-Fi standard (e.g. 802.11n, ac, ax, be).
As Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) and Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) deployments become more common, users may want to
focus only on access points that support a specific standard — for example, to identify legacy
devices or verify that newer standards are available in their environment.
Proposed Solution
Add a WiFiStandardFilter following the existing WiFiBandFilter pattern already in the codebase.
The WiFiStandard enum is already fully defined in wifi/model/WiFiStandard.kt:
enum class WiFiStandard { UNKNOWN, LEGACY, N, AC, AX, AD, BE }The filter system already has a generic EnumFilter base and EnumFilterAdapter that handle
multi-select enum filtering. Adding WiFiStandardFilter would extend this pattern with minimal
new code.
Expected behavior
- New filter option in the filter dialog: Wi-Fi Standard
- Multi-select: user can select one or more standards (e.g. AX + BE only)
- Default: all standards selected (no filtering applied)
- Consistent with existing filter UX for band and strength
Files that would be affected
wifi/filter/WiFiStandardFilter.kt— new filter classwifi/filter/adapter/WiFiStandardAdapter.kt— new adapterwifi/filter/adapter/FiltersAdapter.kt— register new filterwifi/filter/Filter.kt— integrate new filter predicate- Corresponding test files
Why this fits the project
- No new dependencies
- Follows the existing
EnumFilter/EnumFilterAdapterpattern exactly WiFiStandardmodel and detection logic already exist and are tested- Consistent with the project's goal of helping users analyze and understand their Wi-Fi environment

Additional context
- Tested on: WSL2 / AlmaLinux 9, Android SDK 36
- Wi-Fi standard detection requires Android 11+ (
Build.VERSION_CODES.R);
on older devices the filter would showUNKNOWNfor all access points,
which is the current behavior already handled byWiFiStandard.findOne()
