Do you really want the Serial Number of the card or are you looking 
for or the Mac Address (station address)?  

If it is the mac address you are after it is quite easy to query a
packet driver for a mac address (check out the packet driver 
standard from FTP software or send private email and I will give you
my code which does it from DJGPP).  Just call the packet driver interrupt
with a mac address operation and give it a real mode pointer to a string
and it wil fill it in.

NDIS/NetBIOS and ODI have similar functions, although I have never used them.
