WiFi in promiscuous mode

[calvinblock44]

Hello,

My company ordered a few SiPy boards in order to provide a wifi sniffing solution to a client.
Since then I have discovered the firmware does not allow for enabling 'promiscuous' mode on the ESP32 which i believe is needed for the sniffing.

I have read this thread https://forum.pycom.io/topic/234/wipy-as-a-wifi-device-sensor/3 which says there might be plans to add this feature but i cant find any more information.

Are there any plans to put this functionality into the firmware. Or, if not, are there any resources for adding to the firmware myself?

Thanks,

Calvin
