After some more frustration with the Windows 7 Wireless UI I was longing for the blissful days of having the Funky Odyssey Supplicant I did some googling and found another netsh wlan command of interest:
netsh wlan show interface
C:\>netsh wlan show interface
There is 1 interface on the system:
Name : Wireless Network Connection
Description : AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
GUID : AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Physical address : XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
State : connected
SSID : XXXXX
BSSID : XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
Network type : Infrastructure
Radio type : 802.11g
Authentication : WPA2-Personal
Cipher : XXXXXX
Connection mode : Profile
Channel : 11
Receive rate (Mbps) : 54
Transmit rate (Mbps) : 54
Signal : 99%
Profile : XXXXXXX
Hosted network status : Not available
This command outputs useful information including the current state as well as the physical mac of the adapter.
Also, more googling revealed a fantastic Wireless Troubleshooting document that allows you to turn on advanced logging. It also has great explanations of what the logging statements mean and it can found at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb457018.aspx
