NAME

6       wpi - Intel Pro Wireless 802.11a/b/g 3945 driver
7

DESCRIPTION

9       The  wpi  802.11b/g  wireless NIC driver is a multi-threaded, loadable,
10       clonable, GLDv3-based STREAMS driver supporting the Intel Pro  Wireless
11       3945ABG chipset-based NIC's.
12

CONFIGURATION

14       The  wpi  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, 18, 24, 36,
17       48 and 54 Mbits/sec.
