GetAuthenticationMode()
Call this function to obtain the radio’s current authentication mode.
GetBSSID()
Call this function to get the current MAC address (BSSID) of the service
set. In ESS mode, this is the MAC address of the access point the radio is
associated with. In IBSS mode, this is a randomly generated MAC address,
and serves as the ID for the IBSS.

radio is using an open system.
NDIS_RADIO_AUTH_MODE_SHARED 802.11b/g Shared Authentication. Indicates that the
radio is using a shared key.
NDIS_RADIO_AUTH_MODE_AUTO Auto switch between Open/Shared. Indicates
automatic detection is used when available.
NDIS_RADIO_AUTH_MODE_ERROR Defined as error value. Indicates the authentication
mode was not determined at this time or is
unknown.
