NAME
     rtw - RealTek 8180L 802.11b Wireless NIC driver

DESCRIPTION
     The rtw 802.11b wireless NIC driver  is  a   multi-threaded,
     loadable,  clonable,  GLDv3-based  STREAMS driver supporting
     RealTek 8180L chipset-based NIC's.

CONFIGURATION
     The rtw 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. The default is 11.


     The rtw driver supports only BSS  networks  (also  known  as
     "ap"  or  "infrastructure"  networks)  and  "open"(or "open-
     system") or "shared system" authentication.

FILES
     /dev/rtw*
