Is it 802.11a, 802.11b, or 802.11g?

Is it 802.11a, 802.11b, or 802.11g?

If DDK says:

typedef enum _NDIS_802_11_NETWORK_TYPE
{
Ndis802_11FH,
Ndis802_11DS,
Ndis802_11OFDM5,
Ndis802_11OFDM24,
Ndis802_11NetworkTypeMax
} NDIS_802_11_NETWORK_TYPE, *PNDIS_802_11_NETWORK_TYPE;

Is this true:

802.11b = Ndis802_11FH or Ndis802_11DS
802.11a = Ndis802_11OFDM5
802.11g = Ndis802_11OFDM24

Thanks

From the MSDN:
Ndis802_11FH
Indicates the physical layer for the frequency-hopping spread-spectrum
radio.
Ndis802_11DS
Indicates the physical layer for the direct-sequence spread-spectrum
radio.
Ndis802_11OFDM5
Indicates the physical layer for 5-GHz OFDM radios.
Ndis802_11OFDM24
Indicates the physical layer for 2.4-GHz OFDM radios.
If the device supports 802.11g, then the driver must return Ndis802_11DS and
Ndis802_11OFDM24 in the list of supported types, in addition to any other
types supported.

Good luck,
