Hi, The later driver model isn't supported by ndisulator. We'd have to implement all the newer NDIS stuff for wifi and ethernet. In the later NDIS layer the Microsoft Wireless Services implement a bunch of stuff that used to be up to the driver. Ie, the driver just exposed an ethernet "device" with some extra bits for wifi. Ie, the whole stack runs in the driver. That has changed. -adrian
