Hi all. I've been digging through OS X API documentation for the last couple of hours, trying to find info/example of how to determine if a wifi (802.11 device) is installed and up and running. The solution needs to be Panther friendly. Could someone throw me a pointer?

You'll want to use Apple's AirPort API which you can get from Apple DTS.
Look for "Apple80211.framework"

Well, it depends on exactly what you're trying to detect. If all you want to know is whether the machine is using 802.11 networking, you can get that information via the public System Configuration framework (SCF).


Let us know what you're looking and I can be more specific.
