ndisprot - ndis 6 or ndis 5

I want to gather signal strength of all WiFi access points in Windows
Vista.
For this, I want to write a NdisProt driver so that my application
can
send request to my driver which in-turn will request miniport driver.
For this I have to use IOCTL_NDISPROT_QUERY_OID_VALUE with
OID_802_11_BSSID_LIST. Is this correct approach to what I need to
do ?

I looked at WDK 6000 sample code. There are two NdisProt code samples
- one for NDIS 5.0 and another for NDIS 6.0. Which sample should I
take as a base code for my project?


Thanks,
Raj
