NAME
iwp - Intel WiFi Link 6000 Series Device Driver
DESCRIPTION
The iwp 802.11b/g wireless NIC driver is a multi-threaded,
loadable, clonable, GLDv3-based STREAMS driver which sup-
ports the Intel WiFi Link 6000 series chipset-based NICs.
ConfigurationThe iwp 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.The iwp driver only supports BSS networks, (also known as ap
or infrastructure networks), open(or open-system) , or
shared system authentication. FILES/kernel/drv/iwp 32-bit ELF kernel module (x86)
