When I noticed that BLE and Bluetooth Classic both supports Broadcasting (data transfer without connection and without bothering which device got it), I searched for the same functionality in WiFi but I couldn't find it in WiFi protocol. Can someone please confirm this whether WiFi supports broadcasting or not?

Hello Akhil, Wi-Fi supports Broadcasting because the cornerstone of any wireless network is an access point (AP). The primary job of an access point is to broadcast a wireless signal that computers can detect and "tune" into. In order to connect to an access point and join a wireless network.

I am talking about broadcasting as connectionless data transmission using advertising channels. Do WiFi support this service?
