I am new in android networking. Now I am doing an Android network related project. In this project I want to integrate 6 IP cameras into my project and all cameras stream simultaneously. This IP cameras are Wi-Fi enabled cameras. The problem is here, how we connect multiple wifi devices into an Android device ? Only we can connect single Wi-Fi at a time. But one way is Wi-Fi direct or Hotspot. But how the IP camera identify and connect mobile hotspot ?

This is the cgi command given by the client to get Wi-Fi scan result

get_wifi_scan_result.cgi

   Description: Gets the camera results of search for wireless networks
Certification: administrator
Syntax: /get_wifi_scan_result.cgi
Returns:
ap_number : Refers to the search for how many SSID , The following variable groups, with the first group, for example:
ap_ssid[0]:ssid
ap_mode[0]:0->infra 1->adhoc

                0->WEP-NONE
                1->WEP
                2->WPA-PSK TKIP
                3->WPA-PSK AES 
                4->WPA2-PSK TKIP
                5->WPA2-PSK AES

Android cannot currently connect to more than 1 Wi-Fi provider.

Try connecting all cameras to a single router, and then the Android device uses the same router.

Beware that this might not work on some Wi-Fi cameras that behave as mini web servers such that the router has to connect to them (via RTSP/RTMP).
