30 ---help---
31 Say Y if you have a Metricom radio and intend to use Starmode Radio
32 IP. STRIP is a radio protocol developed for the MosquitoNet project
33 (on the WWW at <http://mosquitonet.stanford.edu/>) to send Internet
34 traffic using Metricom radios. Metricom radios are small, battery
35 powered, 100kbit/sec packet radio transceivers, about the size and
36 weight of a cellular telephone. (You may also have heard them called
37 "Metricom modems" but we avoid the term "modem" because it misleads
38 many people into thinking that you can plug a Metricom modem into a
39 phone line and use it as a modem.)
40
41 You can use STRIP on any Linux machine with a serial port, although
42 it is obviously most useful for people with laptop computers. If you
43 think you might get a Metricom radio in the future, there is no harm
44 in saying Y to STRIP now, except that it makes the kernel a bit
45 bigger.

55 Aironet makes Arlan, a class of wireless LAN adapters. These use the
56 www.Telxon.com chip, which is also used on several similar cards.
57 This driver is tested on the 655 and IC2200 series cards. Look at
58 <http://www.ylenurme.ee/~elmer/655/> for the latest information.
59
60 The driver is built as two modules, arlan and arlan-proc. The latter
61 is the /proc interface and is not needed most of time.
