WMI, MSNdis_80211_ Classes

Hello

I have problems with WMI and Wireless LAN. WMI should have all classes to
configure WLAN, but unfortunatly i can't get it to work.

If I use WBEMTEST on a W2K3 system I can see an instance of the
MSNdis_80211_AddWEP class for my wireless network adapter. If I do this on
Windows XP I can't get this instance (classes like MSNdis_80211_BSSIList are
working fine).

I found an old posting talking about wrong GUIDs for classes like
MSNdis_80211_AddWEP and others.

http://groups.google.de/groups?hl=d...ftngxa08&rnum=6

In this post there is a MOF file that fixes some GUIDs ( those guids on XP
are really different, very strang - on 2003 they are the same as this your
MOF file). Anyway . I have fixed the shema on XP but now the
MSNdis_80211_AddWEP class is still not available!

I could talk direktly to NDIS with DeviceIOControl, but as far as I know
microsoft says: Use WMI !!

Can someone help !?

From the old newspgroup posting:

There a bug in the MSNdis_80211 schema that prevents the
MSNdis_80211_AddWEP from working. The GUID that maps to the
OID_802_11_ADD_WEP is incorrect. At the bottom of this post, I've included
the text for a MOF file. If you copy this text into notepad and save the
text as WMICore_fix.MOF you can run mofcomp.exe to fix the schema

For example... "C:\>mofcomp WMICore_fix.mof"
