Wireless Extensions for Linux

The purpose of this document is to give an overview of the Wireless Extensions. The first part will explain the reason of this development and the generals ideas behind this work. Then, we will give the current status of the development. The third part will explore the user interface. We will finish by some implementation details and the possible evolution of the Wireless Extensions. This document is a part of the Linux Wireless LAN Howto. Please refer to it for details. It all started when I tried to install a Wavelan network on Linux computers. I was having a ISA and a PCMCIA versions of the Wavelan, and the two drivers were using totally different methods for the setup and collection of statistics (and in fact fairly incomplete...). As my small hard disks didn’t allow me to reboot to DOS to set up those missing parameters, I started to modify the driver code. [via]
