NDIS_STATUS_WDI_INDICATION_ROAMING_NEEDED (dot11wificxintf.h)

Important

This topic is part of the WiFiCx driver model. WiFiCx is the Wi-Fi driver model released in Windows 11. We recommend that you use WiFiCx to take advantage of the latest features. The previous Wi-Fi driver model WDI is in maintenance mode and will only receive high priority fixes.

WiFiCx drivers use NDIS_STATUS_WDI_INDICATION_ROAMING_NEEDED to indicate that the host should try to find a better peer to connect to. This notification is used when the link quality with the currently connected peer falls below a certain threshold. On sending this notification, the host may trigger a roam scan and/or a roam operation. The Microsoft component does not perform a disconnect before it starts the roam operation.
