I don't think it's a location permission issue, can you confirm it by the logs below?

It turns out python version 3.9.6 won't get BSSID of the networks so I did install version 3.9.13 and for some reason it worked and now it reveals the BSSID of networks. However now I get the error FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'hcxpcapngtool'
