I recommend to install simple-netaid-gtk2, version 1.0.7, tested in a fresh install of devuan daedalus.
Among other improvements and bugfixes, this version receives the available active wifis in json format:

$ ubus call ering.netaid scan_active_wifis '{ "ifname": "wlan0", "format": 1 }'

{

    "Cell 01": {

        "Address": ".......",

        "Quality": "51/70",

        "Encryption key": "on",

        "Essid": "......."

    },

    "Cell 02": {

        "Address": ".......",

        "Quality": "25/70",

        "Encryption key": "on",

        "Essid": "........."

    },

     etc...


}


I'm aware that actually the policy of snetaid is a bit of a mess due to the required backwards
compatibility with the non updated ncurses interface of simple-netaid. This is in my TODO list.

On the other hand, version 1.0.7 will allow you to install other dhcp clients like isc-dhcp-client
or udhcpc (the busybox version of dhcpcd), as suggested by al3xu5.

Cheers,

Aitor.
