Getting Wireless Connection Name Through VBA
Is there any way for us to get the SSID of the Wifi or the name of the Local Area Network we are currently connected to?
Basically, I want to detect the name of the active connection, e.g. if it is the office network, then allow the script to resume, if it is the home network, or a public wifi etc, do not resume with script execution or provide an option to connect to a VPN of the office network.

Personally, I would recommend against using Access over a wireless connection, especially from a laptop or tablet that you are moving throughout your environment. The potential for broken connections (and therefore data corruption) is much higher when using Access over wireless.
Additionally, wireless connections are significantly slower than wired and your application is likely to function extremely slowly.
Finally, if you seriously need this functionality, recommend you move your back-end to SQL Server or SQL Server express.
