GetPowerMode()
Call this function to get the current power savings mode of the radio. Note:
Do not use Automatic Switching mode at this time.
GetRSSI()
Call this function to get the current RSSI (Radio Signal Strength
Indicator), in Dbm.
Syntax UINT GetPowerMode( ULONG & );
Parameters NDIS_RADIO_POWER_MODE_CAM Continuous Access Mode (ie: always on).
NDIS_RADIO_POWER_MODE_PSP Power Saving Mode.
NDIS_RADIO_POWER_UNKNOWN Unknown power mode.
NDIS_RADIO_POWER_AUTO Auto.

Return Values ERROR_SUCCESS when successful, ERR_QUERY_FAILED when the query failed, or
ERR_CONNECT_FAILED if a connection with the radio failed.
Remarks If ERROR_SUCCESS is returned, the ULONG reference is populated with a parameter listed above.
Definitions
#ifdef DYNAMIC_LOADING
typedef UINT (*PFN_GetPowerMode)(ULONG &);
#else
UINT GetPowerMode(ULONG &);
#endif
Syntax UINT GetRSSI( ULONG & );
Parameters References a ULONG populated with current RSSI after a successful call.
Return Values ERROR_SUCCESS when successful, ERR_QUERY_FAILED when the
query failed, or ERR_CONNECT_FAILED if a connection with the
radio failed.
Remarks If ERROR_SUCCESS is returned, your ULONG reference contains the
RSSI. Valid RSSI range is from –100 Dbm to –30 Dbm.
