NAME
     uath - Atheros AR5523 USB IEEE802.11a/b/g  Wireless  Network
     Driver

DESCRIPTION
     The  uath  IEEE802.11a/b/g  wireless  network  driver  is  a
     multi-threaded,   loadable,  clonable,  GLDv3-based  STREAMS
     driver supporting Atheros AR5523 USB  IEEE802.11a/b/g  wire-
     less network driver.

  Configuration
     The uath driver performs auto-negotiation to  determine  the
     data  rate  and  mode. The driver supports only BSS networks
     (also known as ap or infrastructure networks) and  open  (or
     open-system)  or  shared system authentication. For wireless
     security,  WEP  encryption,  WPA-PSk,   and   WPA2-PSK   are
     currently  supported.  You  can  perform  configuration  and
     administration tasks using the dladm(1M) and  wificonfig(1M)
     utilities.
