Description

       This module provides access to firmware sets for the  Intel  PRO/Wireless  2100  series  of  IEEE  802.11
       adapters.  It may be statically linked into the kernel, or loaded as a module.

       For  the loaded firmware to be enabled for use the license at /usr/share/doc/legal/intel_ipw.LICENSE must
       be agreed to by adding the following line to loader.conf(5):

             legal.intel_ipw.license_ack=1

Synopsis

       To compile this module into the kernel, place the following line in your kernel configuration file:

             deviceipwfw

       This  will  include three firmware images inside the kernel.  If you want to pick only the firmware image
       for the mode you want to operate your network adapter in choose one of the following:

             deviceipwbssfwdeviceipwibssfwdeviceipwmonitorfw

       Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following lines in loader.conf(5):

             ipw_bss_load="YES"
             ipw_ibss_load="YES"
             ipw_monitor_load="YES"
