Does anyone know why DHCP is using DHCP_REQUEST_WLAN with my miniport?
 It's a virtual miniport, and it emulates 802.3 in the same was as
VMINI, but the process for getting an address via DHCP seems to be
different for mine. I am being added to v_pEstablishedList during a
call to RequestWLan which is in response to a DHCP_REQUEST_WLAN. This
appears to be causing me problems further down the line, when my
miniport reports a disconnect and then reconnect. In this latter
case, the DHCP processing fails because it cannot find my driver in
the established list. Any reason why CE.NET appears to believe my
driver is different from VMINI, considering I've matched as closely as
I can how it behaves with OIDs?
