And why do you care about that?

I want to develop an application that use the signal strength of all wifi
network to locate the PDA in space.
In the NDIS 5.1 I can use the OID BSSID_LIST and LIST_SCAN.
exemple :
do something when you are near this AP. That's all. But to do that I must
know the wifi environment.

You don't want to do it that way. If you are using managed code, as your
post to .dotnet.framework.compactframework suggests, just use the code in
OpenNETCF and it's already done for you. This code will work on PPC2003 and
on devices running Windows CE.NET 4.x and later (non-Pocket PC).

However, in PPC2002/Windows CE 3.0 and earlier, WiFi support is not native
to the OS, so you'd have to get the signal strength from each card using
it's custom API (if any). If that's your target, you're out of luck.
