I commented the output.

Bad luck. It seems the ip address is correctly setup, but there is no 
interface configured. Maybe reinstalling the drivers for the wireless 
card will help.

I've searched the MSDN but there is no comment for the GetIfTable function
that it would not report wireless interfaces.

BTW: I threw the message back to the ML. Might be of interest there too.
