example configures zyd0 to join any BSS network using WEP key
|
|
.Dq 0x1deadbeef1 ,
|
|
channel 11:
|
|

|
|
An attempt to send a command to the firmware failed.
|
|
.It "zyd%d: sorry, radio %s is not supported yet"
|
|
Support for the specified radio chip is not yet implemented in the driver.
|
|
The device will not attach.
|
|
.It "zyd%d: device version mismatch: 0x%x (only >= 43.30 supported)"
|
|
Early revisions of the ZD1211 chipset are not supported by this driver.

The original

.Nm
|
|
driver was written by
|
|
.An Florian Stoehr Aq ich@florian-stoehr.de ,
|
|
.An Damien Bergamini Aq damien@openbsd.org ,

|
|
.Sh CAVEATS
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver does not support a lot of the functionality available in the hardware.
|
|
More work is required to properly support the IBSS and power management
|
|
features.
