Hey there - I've got a question about Wireless NDIS. It's not about Netstumbler, but I was curious if anyone here would answer my question[s] or link me to a good faq or document.

Specifically, it's about Multicasting and Wireless - can it be done? I'm trying to map out a plan if it's possible to use GhostCast to push/pull images to/from laptops over wireless. I've used GhostCast before with Ethernet Nics and I had to have the NDIS driver [which I gather is DOS-based if you're not talking Linux]. Any time I search for NDIS drivers for wireless chipsets I turn up zilch. Am I trying for something that just isn't possible?

I've got a basic understanding of wireless and a thorough understanding of networking basics, so don't hold back on explaining yourself techncially.

Thanks in advance!
