+.Sh NAME
+.Nm iwi
+.Nd Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG/2225BG/2915ABG IEEE 802.11 driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "device iwi"
+.Cd "device pci"
+.Cd "device wlan"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for
+.Tn Intel
+PRO/Wireless 2200BG/2915ABG MiniPCI and 2225BG PCI network adapters.
+.Pp
+By default, the
+.Nm
+driver configures the adapter for BSS operation (aka infrastructure mode).
+This mode requires the use of an access point.
+.Pp
+For more information on configuring this device, see
+.Xr ifconfig 8 .
+.Sh EXAMPLES
+Join an existing BSS network (ie: connect to an access point):
+.Pp
+.Dl "ifconfig iwi0 inet 192.168.0.20 netmask 0xffffff00"
+.Pp
+Join a specific BSS network with network name
+.Dq Li my_net :
+.Pp
+.Dl "ifconfig iwi0 inet 192.168.0.20 netmask 0xffffff00 ssid my_net"
+.Pp
+Join a specific BSS network with 64 bits WEP encryption:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+ifconfig iwi0 inet 192.168.0.20 netmask 0xffffff00 ssid my_net \e
+ wepmode on wepkey 0x1234567890
+.Ed
+.Pp
+Join a specific BSS network with 128bits WEP encryption:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+ifconfig iwi0 inet 192.168.0.20 netmask 0xffffff00 ssid my_net \e
+ wepmode on wepkey 0x01020304050607080910111213
+.Ed
+.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
+.Bl -diag
+.It "iwi%d: device timeout"
+The driver will reset the hardware. This should not happen.
