Hi,
1.73 of if_ndis.c works which is the good news :)

However I don't see which BSSID I'm associated with using wicontrol -L..
[inchoate 15:50] ~ >sudo wicontrol -i ndis0 -L
=2E..
TX encryption key:                      [ 0 ]
Encryption keys:                        [  ][  ][  ][  ]
Available APs:
1 station:
SSID                        BSSID         Chan     SN  S  N  Intrvl Capinfo
citilan           [ 00:00:00:00:00:00 ]  [ 4  ]  [  0  0  0 ]    0
                  [ 11b 5b 2b 1b 5.5b ]

Neither does ifconfig..
[inchoate 15:51] ~ >ifconfig -v ndis0 list scan
SSID            BSSID              CHAN RATE  S:N   INT CAPS
citilan         00:00:00:00:00:00    4   11M  0:0     0

Howver, using wicontrol -l shows it..
[inchoate 15:50] ~ >sudo wicontrol -i ndis0 -l
1 station:
ap[0]:
        netname (SSID):                 [ citilan ]
        BSSID:                          [ 00:40:96:40:47:80 ]
        Channel:                        [ 4 ]
        Quality/Signal/Noise [signal]:  [ 72 / 72 / 0 ]
                                [dBm]:  [ 72 / -77 / -149 ]
        BSS Beacon Interval [msec]:     [ 0 ]
        Capinfo:                        [ ]
        DataRate [Mbps]:                [ 11 ]

Also, when you run ifconfig after setting an SSID it doesn't actually displ=
ay=20
it unless you're associated (not sure if that's a bug).
