Yes I have included proper path in visual studio.Still,its giving same error.

After intalling "WindowsXP-KB918997-v6-x86-ENU.exe" ,whenever I am building my project,it is showing error "CanNot open include file "winsock2.h"".But the file winsock2.h is there in my system and I have also included the correc path.What could be the reason?Can anybody help?

Thanks.... :-O

it won't work as its win32 api.

mine is not a built-in adapter.its a USB adapter.Can that be a reason for it?

no the type came as "ethernet".In Linux also the type for wireless adapter comes as "ethernet" when you give ifconfig.U can try it also.

can anybody suggest how to get name of network adapter card if ip address is given in linux?I have to do it programmatically.

Thanks for your help but It didn't help either.The function displays type of wireless as ethernet.If you know any other method pls do reply.

I didn't get you.Could you please give me some links or some source code so as to understand what you have specified.Thanks....

I have used GetAdapterAddress and GetAdapterInfo which are part of win32 API to get list of interfaces.But the problem is that for ethernet everything is showing fine.But for wireless adapter the type it is returning is "ethernet".But it is returning all other information correctly about the wireless adapter such as ipaddress,index and name.I don't know why its happening.and I can't use WMI.

I didn't get your answer.see i have to develope an application in which i have to distinguish out of the network adapter cards available in the system,which one is ethernet and which one is wireless.Its easy to know which one is ethernet but for wireless i am not getting anything.But one think that I have noticed is index number for ethernet is genearlly 2,3etc and for wireless its 65530 etc.I was thinking to distinguish both referring to the index number.I hope u now understand what my problem is.Pls help if u have any answer to it.Thanks...

Each network adapter has an ip address,subnet mask attached with it,right?Similarly,an network adapter also has an index associated with it,through which we can bind a scoket to it.the ethernet adapter that i have has index 2.so,i am asking whether there is some range for index of an network adapter?

Hi all, do value of index of the ethernet cards and also wireless adapters :confused:in pc have any definite range?:confused:

no,i didn't find anything useful for me in your article.Thanks anyway...

i need to write a code which will show which kind of network adapter it's.taht means whether its ethernet or wireless or something else.I tried using GetAdapterInfo but foe "wireless adapter" its also showing "ethernet".Can anybody suggest any other API.I don't want WMI.Thanks.........

One of my frn has not cleared his 12th.He has done a 6 months course in mobile enigineering.and now he is doing JetKing course in Hardware and networking where he will clear CCNA exam.can anybody suggest what are the opportunities for him available when he'll complete the course.Which kind of job he might get.
