NAME
       urtw - RealTek RTL8187L/RTL8187B USB 802.11b/g Wireless Driver

DESCRIPTION
       The urtw 802.11b/g wireless driver is a multi-threaded, loadable, clon‐
       able,  GLDv3-basedSTREAMS  driver  supporting  the   RealTek   RTL8187L
       chipset-based wireless devices.

   Configuration
       The  urtw  driver  performs auto-negotiation to determine the data rate
       and mode. Supported 802.11b data rates are 1, 2, 5.5 and 11  Mbits/sec.
       Supported 802.11g data rates are 1, 2, 5.5, 11, 6, 9, 12, 8, 24, 36, 48
       and 54 Mbits/sec. The atu driver supports only BSS networks (also known
       asap  or	 infrastructure	 networks) and open (or open-system) or shared
       system authentication.
