- The Wavelan drivers saga
- ------------------------
-
- By Jean Tourrilhes <jt@hpl.hp.com>
-
- The Wavelan is a Radio network adapter designed by
-Lucent. Under this generic name is hidden quite a variety of hardware,
-and many Linux driver to support it.
- The get the full story on Wireless LANs, please consult :
- http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/
-
-"wavelan" driver (old ISA Wavelan)
-----------------
- o Config : Network device -> Wireless LAN -> AT&T WaveLAN
- o Location : .../drivers/net/wireless/wavelan*
- o in-line doc : .../drivers/net/wireless/wavelan.p.h
- o on-line doc :
- http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Wavelan.html
-
- This is the driver for the ISA version of the first generation
-of the Wavelan, now discontinued. The device is 2 Mb/s, composed of a
-Intel 82586 controller and a Lucent Modem, and is NOT 802.11 compliant.
- The driver has been tested with the following hardware :
- o Wavelan ISA 915 MHz (full length ISA card)
- o Wavelan ISA 915 MHz 2.0 (half length ISA card)
- o Wavelan ISA 2.4 GHz (full length ISA card, fixed frequency)
- o Wavelan ISA 2.4 GHz 2.0 (half length ISA card, frequency selectable)
- o Above cards with the optional DES encryption feature
-
-"wavelan_cs" driver (old Pcmcia Wavelan)
--------------------
- o Config : Network device -> PCMCIA network ->
- Pcmcia Wireless LAN -> AT&T/Lucent WaveLAN
- o Location : .../drivers/net/pcmcia/wavelan*
- o in-line doc : .../drivers/net/pcmcia/wavelan_cs.h
- o on-line doc :
- http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Wavelan.html
-
- This is the driver for the PCMCIA version of the first
-generation of the Wavelan, now discontinued. The device is 2 Mb/s,
-composed of a Intel 82593 controller (totally different from the 82586)
-and a Lucent Modem, and NOT 802.11 compatible.
- The driver has been tested with the following hardware :
- o Wavelan Pcmcia 915 MHz 2.0 (Pcmcia card + separate
- modem/antenna block)
- o Wavelan Pcmcia 2.4 GHz 2.0 (Pcmcia card + separate
- modem/antenna block)
-
-"wvlan_cs" driver (Wavelan IEEE, GPL)
------------------
- o Config : Not yet in kernel
- o Location : Pcmcia package 3.1.10+
- o on-line doc :
- http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.fasta.fh-dortmund.de/users/andy/wvlan/
-
- This is the driver for the current generation of Wavelan IEEE,
-which is 802.11 compatible. Depending on version, it is 2 Mb/s or 11
-Mb/s, with or without encryption, all implemented in Lucent specific
-DSP (the Hermes).
- This is a GPL full source PCMCIA driver (ISA is just a Pcmcia
-card with ISA-Pcmcia bridge).
-
-"wavelan2_cs" driver (Wavelan IEEE, binary)
---------------------
- o Config : Not yet in kernel
- o Location : ftp://sourceforge.org/pcmcia/contrib/
-
- This driver support exactly the same hardware as the previous
-driver, the main difference is that it is based on a binary library
-and supported by Lucent.
-
- I hope it clears the confusion ;-)
