hi guys,

I'm developing a NDIS Intermediate Miniport driver and i want to add
some functionality to it.

My IM is designed for WiFi networks. In the driver, I need to know the
SSID of the network the underlying wifi card is currently connected
to, and whether this network is Ad-Hoc or Infrastructure.

The ideal solution is to have a callback that would be called when the
underlying is connecting/disconnecting to/from the network.

Any insight?

Study the OID_802_11_xyz family of OIDs.

Your IM just sends the OIDs using NdisRequest().

Is this for NDIS 5.1 or Native (Vista) wi-fi?
For NDIS5, medium connect indications from the miniport
are the callbacks you need.
