You can get WIFI related information using:

```dart
import 'package:connectivity/connectivity.dart';

var wifiBSSID = await (Connectivity().getWifiBSSID());
var wifiIP = await (Connectivity().getWifiIP());network
var wifiName = await (Connectivity().getWifiName());wifi network
```

### Known Issues

#### iOS 13

The methods `.getWifiBSSID()` and `.getWifiName()` utilize the [CNCopyCurrentNetworkInfo](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/systemconfiguration/1614126-cncopycurrentnetworkinfo) function on iOS.

As of iOS 13, Apple announced that these APIs will no longer return valid information by default and will instead return the following:
> SSID: "Wi-Fi" or "WLAN" ("WLAN" will be returned for the China SKU)
> BSSID: "00:00:00:00:00:00"

You can follow issue [#37804](https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/37804) for the changes required to return valid SSID and BSSID values with iOS 13.
