One other thign I keep forgetting about (probably because nobody every uses it) 
is the "nickname" field.  You can set it with iwconfig in linux (windows usually 
sets it to the hostname of the PC).

This I believe (check the spec before relying on it) is part of every packet 
sent over the air and would certainly take care of your ID requirements.
