NAME

6       urtw - RealTek RTL8187L/RTL8187B USB 802.11b/g Wireless Driver
7

DESCRIPTION

9       The urtw 802.11b/g wireless driver is a multi-threaded, loadable, clon‐
10       able,  GLDv3-basedSTREAMS  driver  supporting  the   RealTek   RTL8187L
11       chipset-based wireless devices.
12
13   Configuration
14       The  urtw  driver  performs auto-negotiation to determine the data rate
15       and mode. Supported 802.11b data rates are 1, 2, 5.5 and 11  Mbits/sec.
16       Supported 802.11g data rates are 1, 2, 5.5, 11, 6, 9, 12, 8, 24, 36, 48
17       and 54 Mbits/sec. The atu driver supports only BSS networks (also known
18       asap  or  infrastructure  networks) and open (or open-system) or shared
19       system authentication.
