Let's assume this network layout: 1 router, 1 laptop(as server), 1 mobile phone.

Laptop and mobile phone are connected to the router via WiFi.

Question 1: Is it possible(using .NET or Java) from laptop side to get dB or dBm(signal strength) values for this mobile phone without any action on the mobile phone side(besides connection to the wifi)? Or is it only possible if router manufacturer provides SDK?
