NAME
       rwd  -  Ralink  RT2561/RT2561S/RT2661  IEEE802.11b/g  wireless  network
       driver

DESCRIPTION
       The rwd IEEE802.11b/g wireless network driver is a multithreaded, load‐
       able,   clonable,   GLDv3-based	 STREAMS   driver   supporting	Ralink
       RT2561/RT2561S/RT2661 IEEE802.11b/g wireless network driver.

CONFIGURATION
       The rwd driver performs auto-negotiation to determine the data rate and
       mode. The driver supports only BSS networks (also known as "ap" or "in‐
       frastructure" networks) and "open"(or "open-system") or "shared system"
       authentication.	For  wireless  security,  WEP encryption, WPA-PSk, and
       WPA2-PSK are currently supported. You  can  perform  configuration  and
       administration tasks using the dladm(1M)and wificonfig(1M) utilities.
