+ Auto-loading of ancillary wlan modules such as wlan_wep has
+ been temporarily disabled; you need to statically configure
+ the modules you need into your kernel or explicitly load them
+ prior to use. Specifically, if you intend to use WEP encryption
+ with an 802.11 device load/configure wlan_wep; if you want to
+ use WPA with the ath driver load/configure wlan_tkip, wlan_ccmp,
+ and wlan_xauth as required.
