=head2 C<< $wlan->handle >>

Returns the Windows API handle for the Wlan API.

=cut

sub handle { $_[0]->{handle} };

=head2 C<< $wlan->interface >>

    print $wlan->interface->{name};

Returns a hashref describing the interface. The keys are
C<guuid> for the guuid, C<name> for the human-readable name and
C<status> for the status of the interface.

=cut

sub interface { $_[0]->{interface} };

=head2 C<< $wlan->available >>

    $wlan->available
        or warn "Wlan API is not available";

Returns whether the Wlan API is available. The Wlan API is available
on Windows XP SP3 or higher.

=cut

sub available { $_[0]->{available} };

=head2 C<< $wlan->connected >>

    $wlan->connected
        or warn "Wlan connection unavailable";

Returns whether a Wlan connection is established. No connection is established
when Wlan is switched off or no access point is in range.
