SDIO Wireless Disable

Hi everyone, I want in my application to disable the SDIO card exactly like
if Iright click on the icon in the "Network and Dial-up Connection" ui and
choose Disable. I know that we can call SetDevicePower() with the state D4
but that is not what I want since the card is still active and can be wake
up by the system.

Do you know what to do to mimic the "disable" context menu action?

Regards,

Paul

I and others have posted before. You can use GoogleGroups,

thread that way:

I forgot to set the power_state of the device to D4 that is why I was having
stranger behavior.

Thank you very much Paul!

Hi Paul, now that my disabling work fine I am having problem with the
reenabling...

Is there an order to respect to get it right? The problem is when I am
reactivating the ndis driver the connection still disable. In order to get
it reenable I have to go in "Network and Dial-up Connection" applet and
click Enable.

Here is what I did.

1- Open NDS0:
2- DeviceIoControl to NDS0: with IOCTL_NDIS_BIND_ADAPTER
3- SetDevicePower to NDS0: to D0
4- Open NPW1:
5- DeviceIoControl to NPW1: with IOCTL_NPW_SAVE_POWER_STATE (D0)
6- Close NDS0: and NPW1:

Thank you
