6 ral - Ralink RT2500 802.11b/g Wireless driver
7
9 The ral 802.11b/g wireless NIC driver is a multi-threaded, loadable,
10 clonable, GLDv3-based STREAMS driver supporting Ralink RT2500 chipset-
11 based NIC's.
12
14 The ral driver performs auto-negotiation to determine the data rate and
15 mode. Supported 802.11b data rates are 1, 2, 5.5 and 11 Mbits/sec. Sup‐
16 ported 802.11g data rates are 1, 2, 5.5, 6, 9, 11, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48
17 and 54 Mbits/sec. The ral driver supports only BSS networks (also
18 known as "ap" or "infrastructure" networks) and "open"(or "open-sys‐
19 tem") or "shared system" authentication.
