- Saying Y here also enables the Wireless Extensions (creates
- /proc/net/wireless and enables iwconfig access). The Wireless
- Extension is a generic API allowing a driver to expose to the user
- space configuration and statistics specific to common Wireless LANs.
- The beauty of it is that a single set of tool can support all the
- variations of Wireless LANs, regardless of their type (as long as
- the driver supports Wireless Extension). Another advantage is that
- these parameters may be changed on the fly without restarting the
- driver (or Linux). If you wish to use Wireless Extensions with
- wireless PCMCIA (PC-) cards, you need to say Y here; you can fetch
- the tools from
