8 iwh \- Intel(R) WiFi Link 5100/5300 Driver
12 The \fBiwh\fR \fI802.11a/g/n\fR wireless NIC driver is a multi-threaded,
13 loadable, clonable, GLDv3-based STREAMS driver supporting the Intel Shirley
14 Peak WiFi chipset-based NIC's. Driver functions include controller
15 initialization, wireless \fI802.11\fR infrastructure network connection, WEP
16 and frame transmit and receive.
20 The \fBiwh\fR driver performs auto-negotiation to determine the data rate and
21 mode. Supported \fI802.11b\fR data rates are 1, 2, 5.5 and 11 Mbits/sec.
22 Supported \fI802.11g\fR data rates are 1, 2, 5.5, 11, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48
