DESCRIPTION
       The  zyd	 802.11b/g  wireless  driver  is   a multi-threaded, loadable,
       clonable,    GLDv3-based	   STREAMS   driver   supporting   the	 ZyDAS
       ZD1211/ZD1211B USB chipset-based wireless devices.

CONFIGURATION
       The  zyd	 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, 18, 24, 36,
       48 and 54 Mbits/sec. The zyd driver supports only BSS   networks	 (also
       known   as  "ap" or "infrastructure"  networks) and open (or "open-sys‐
       tem"), shared key and  WPA/WPA2	authentication.	 Supported  encryption
