11 This section contains all the pre 802.11 and 802.11 wireless
12 device drivers. For a complete list of drivers and documentation
13 on them refer to the wireless wiki:
15 http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers
20 tristate "Aviator/Raytheon 2.4GHz wireless support"
26 Say Y here if you intend to attach an Aviator/Raytheon PCMCIA
27 (PC-card) wireless Ethernet networking card to your computer.
28 Please read the file <file:Documentation/networking/ray_cs.txt> for
31 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be
32 called ray_cs. If unsure, say N.
34 config LIBERTAS_THINFIRM
35 tristate "Marvell 8xxx Libertas WLAN driver support with thin firmware"
39 A library for Marvell Libertas 8xxx devices using thinfirm.
41 config LIBERTAS_THINFIRM_USB
42 tristate "Marvell Libertas 8388 USB 802.11b/g cards with thin firmware"
43 depends on LIBERTAS_THINFIRM && USB
45 A driver for Marvell Libertas 8388 USB devices using thinfirm.
48 tristate "Cisco/Aironet 34X/35X/4500/4800 ISA and PCI cards"

55 This is the standard Linux driver to support Cisco/Aironet ISA and
56 PCI 802.11 wireless cards.
57 It supports the new 802.11b cards from Cisco (Cisco 34X, Cisco 35X
58 - with or without encryption) as well as card before the Cisco
59 acquisition (Aironet 4500, Aironet 4800, Aironet 4800B).
61 This driver support both the standard Linux Wireless Extensions
62 and Cisco proprietary API, so both the Linux Wireless Tools and the
63 Cisco Linux utilities can be used to configure the card.
65 The driver can be compiled as a module and will be named "airo".
68 tristate "Atmel at76c50x chipset 802.11b support"
69 depends on (PCI || PCMCIA)
75 A driver 802.11b wireless cards based on the Atmel fast-vnet
76 chips. This driver supports standard Linux wireless extensions.
78 Many cards based on this chipset do not have flash memory
79 and need their firmware loaded at start-up. If yours is
80 one of these, you will need to provide a firmware image
81 to be loaded into the card by the driver. The Atmel
82 firmware package can be downloaded from
83 <http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/atmel>
86 tristate "Atmel at76c506 PCI cards"

121 - with or without encryption) as well as card before the Cisco
122 acquisition (Aironet 4500, Aironet 4800, Aironet 4800B). It also
123 supports OEM of Cisco such as the DELL TrueMobile 4800 and Xircom
126 This driver support both the standard Linux Wireless Extensions
127 and Cisco proprietary API, so both the Linux Wireless Tools and the
128 Cisco Linux utilities can be used to configure the card.

132 depends on EXPERIMENTAL && PCMCIA
136 A driver for WL3501 PCMCIA 802.11 wireless cards made by Planet.
137 It has basic support for Linux wireless extensions and initial
138 micro support for ethtool.
141 tristate 'Intersil Prism GT/Duette/Indigo PCI/Cardbus (DEPRECATED)'
142 depends on PCI && EXPERIMENTAL
148 This enables support for FullMAC PCI/Cardbus prism54 devices. This
149 driver is now deprecated in favor for the SoftMAC driver, p54pci.
150 p54pci supports FullMAC PCI/Cardbus devices as well. For details on
151 the scheduled removal of this driver on the kernel see the feature
154 Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt

162 When built as module you get the module prism54
165 tristate "USB ZD1201 based Wireless device support"
171 Say Y if you want to use wireless LAN adapters based on the ZyDAS
174 This driver makes the adapter appear as a normal Ethernet interface,
177 The zd1201 device requires external firmware to be loaded.
