Hi,
Thank you for the infomation.
I went through the tests that guidelines described and right now our driver
had the same OID responses as guideline
says.
But one weird thing is WZC didn't sent me the Query
OID_802_11_ASSOCIATION_INFOMATION,
It basically skipped this query OID.
I used DLink card as the reference. WZC sent the same OID sequence to DLink
as it sent to our driver, except WZC sent OID_802_11_ASSOCIATION_INFOMATION
to DLink and skipped it to our driver.
SO, DLink card is "WPA capable", and our's not.

Please Help, I know I am very close to pass tests as "WPA capable".
Why WZC doesn't sent OID_802_11_ASSOCIATION_INFOMATION to our driver ?
(I did implement this OID: ASSOCIATION_INFOMATION .)
Any ideas ?
