NAME

       rtw - RealTek 8180L 802.11b Wireless NIC driver

DESCRIPTION

       The rtw 802.11b wireless NIC driver is a  multi-threaded, loadable, clonable, GLDv3-based  STREAMS driver supporting RealTek 8180L chipset-
       based NIC's.

CONFIGURATION

       The rtw driver performs auto-negotiation to determine the data rate and mode. Supported 802.11b data rates are 1, 2, 5.5 and 11	Mbits/sec.
       The default is 11.

       The rtw driver supports only BSS  networks  (also  known as "ap" or "infrastructure" networks) and "open"(or "open-system") or "shared sys-
       tem" authentication.

NAME

       iwh - Intel(R) WiFi Link 5100/5300 Driver

DESCRIPTION

       The  iwh  802.11a/g/n  wireless NIC driver is a multi-threaded, loadable, clonable, GLDv3-based STREAMS driver supporting the Intel Shirley
       Peak WiFi  chipset-based NIC's. Driver functions  include controller initialization, wireless 802.11 infrastructure network connection, WEP
       and  frame transmit and receive.

CONFIGURATION

       The iwh driver performs auto-negotiation  to determine the data rate and mode. Supported 802.11b data rates are 1, 2, 5.5 and 11 Mbits/sec.
       Supported 802.11g data rates are 1, 2, 5.5, 11, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 and 54 Mbits/sec.
