NAME
     urtw -  RealTek  RTL8187L/RTL8187B  USB  802.11b/g  Wireless
     Driver

DESCRIPTION
     The urtw 802.11b/g  wireless  driver  is  a  multi-threaded,
     loadable, clonable, GLDv3-basedSTREAMS driver supporting the
     RealTek RTL8187L chipset-based wireless devices.

  Configuration
     The urtw 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, 8, 24, 36, 48 and 54 Mbits/sec. The atu
     driver supports  only  BSS  networks  (also  known  asap  or
     infrastructure networks) and open (or open-system) or shared
     system authentication.
