WLAN status and strength (WM_WIFISTATUS)

[Otto]

Does someone know if it is possible to query WLAN "connection" status and strength through Notifications Broker?
(State and Notification Broker API Windows Mobile 5)

Thanks in advance

Hi Otto,

Here you find some code I found googling on internet. This code could be a 'starting' to adapt to FWPPC. The question is about libs needed. I am not quite sure eVc4 have got all of them.

By the way... Did you try tSim class ??

Code: Select all

#include "stdafx.h"
#include "SNapiTest.h"
#include <windows.h>
#include <commctrl.h>

#define MAX_LOADSTRING 100



// Global Variables:
HINSTANCE g_hInst; // current instance
HWND g_hWndMenuBar; // menu bar handle

HREGNOTIFY g_hNotify2;
