Notify Application when all system items have been loaded



Title: Message
I was wondering if anyone knows of some way that my app can tell when all the OS items have been loaded and started at startup.
 
My problem is that I have a NKE and an application. My NKE attaches itself to all the interfaces when it is loaded, my application loads my NKE, and my application is started automatically at startup. What I have been seeing is that my application loads my NKE before all the interfaces are up. In other words my NKE will attach itself to the built in Ethernet but not the Airport card. Now if I shut down my app, unload my NKE and start everything again, manually without a system restart then my NKE will see all the interfaces, including the Airport.
 
So what I would like is some way that my app knows not to load the NKE until the OS is finished with all it's overhead. Is there some API call or notification I can use in my application to check the status of the OS and it's start up routine?
 
Thanks
Carl
