   :name: Wi-Fi shell
   :relevant-api: net_stats

   Test Wi-Fi functionality using the Wi-Fi shell module.

Overview

This sample allows testing Wi-Fi drivers for various boards by enabling the Wi-Fi shell module that provides a set of commands: scan, connect, and disconnect. It also enables the net_shell module to verify net_if settings.

Building and Running

Verify the board and chip you are targeting provide Wi-Fi support.

For instance you can use Nordic's nrf7002dk by selecting the nrf7002dk/nrf5340/cpuapp board.
