Re: Delayed system tray noitification of Network Link disconnect

Is your driver also calling NdisMIndicateStatusComplete immediately after
calling NdisMIndicateStatus?

I am maintaining a WINCE5 NDIS5.1 INTEL 100Mbps Ethernet driver, and am
looking into a problem where the system tray icon representing the
network interface is updated to show disconnected state as much as 20
seconds from when the LAN cable is pulled. I have debugged into the
driver and see that it is sending an

NdisMIndicateLinkStatus(..NDIS_STATUS_MEDIA_DISCONNECT... )

within no more than 2 seconds of the physical line disconnection, which
appears to be the correct behavior - but only much later is the system
tray icon updated.

Can anyone tell me if, and how, I might be able to force an update to
the system tray icon to reflect the link status change, from within the
driver, rather than having to wait up to 20 seconds longer.

Thanks for any ideas, dave
