NAME
     urndis -- USB Remote NDIS Ethernet device

SYNOPSIS
     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:

	   device ehci
	   device uhci
	   device ohci
	   device xhci
	   device usb
	   device urndis

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):

DESCRIPTION
     The urndis driver provides Ethernet access over Remote NDIS (RNDIS), allowing mobile devices such as phones and tablets to provide network
     access.  It is often referred to as USB tethering, and in most cases must be explicitly enabled on the device.

     urndis should work with any USB RNDIS devices, such as those commonly found on Android devices.  It does not support different media types or
     options.  For more information on configuring this device, see ifconfig(8).

HARDWARE
     The urndis driver supports the "tethering" functionality of many Android devices.
