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

46 Aironet makes Arlan, a class of wireless LAN adapters. These use the
47 www.Telxon.com chip, which is also used on several similar cards.
48 This driver is tested on the 655 and IC2200 series cards. Look at
49 <http://www.ylenurme.ee/~elmer/655/> for the latest information.

51 The driver is built as two modules, arlan and arlan-proc. The latter
52 is the /proc interface and is not needed most of time.
