How to get Wi-Fi and mobile network parameters in Windows Phone 7?
My app requires the following parameters of mobile network:
- MCC (Mobile Country Code)
- MNC (Mobile Network Code)
- LAC (Location area code)
- CID (Cell identifier)
- cell's signal strength
And for Wi-Fi:
- MAC-adress
- signal strength
Also I need a device IP-adress for both variants.
Is there any API to get these parameters on Windows Phone 7? I can't find anything.

Access to this information is not made provided. Presumably due to possible privacy/security related issues.
Additionally, if you created such an app it would not be acceptable to submit it to the marketplace as it would break certifaction requirements, specifically 2.7.1:
Your application must determine location using the Microsoft Location Service API.
