How can I set WPS IE in 802.11 management frame with NDIS driver ?

Hi.

I think the following OIDs seems to solve this problem. 
NDISUIO_QUERY_OID and IOCTL_NDISUIO_QUERY_OID_VALUE, NDISUIO_SET_OID and IOCTL_NDISUIO_SET_OID_VALUE.

How about you ?

Thanks.

So I think we should find another way to solve this problem because there is no available NDIS version supporting a vendor specific OID.
