firmware based on AMD 79c930 controller -with Intersil (formerly Harris) PRISM radio chipset. -It provides access to 32kb of memory shared between the controller -and the host. -All host/device interaction is via this shared memory, which can be -accessed either via PCMCIA memory space or I/O space. -The -.Nm -driver encapsulates all IP and ARP traffic as 802.11 frames. -.Pp -The driver works both in infrastructure mode and in adhoc (independent -BSS) mode. -.Pp -In infrastructure mode, it communicates with an Access Point -which serves as a link-layer bridge between an Ethernet and -the wireless network. -An access point also provides roaming capability -which allows wireless nodes to move between access points. -.Pp -In adhoc mode, it communicates peer to peer. -Though it is more efficient to communicate between wireless nodes, -the coverage is limited spatially due to lack of roaming capability. -.Pp -In addition to these two modes in the IEEE 802.11 specification, the -.Nm -driver also supports a variant of adhoc mode out of spec for DS radio cards, -which makes it possible to communicate with adhoc mode of -.Xr wi 4 -driver. -The NWID does not affect in this mode.

be used to indicate the driver to operate in adhoc mode. -For DS radio cards, -.Em adhoc , Ns Em flag0 -mediaopt can be used for -.Xr wi 4 -compatible adhoc mode. -In addition to these station modes, -.Em hostap -mediaopt can be used to create a host-based access point. -.Sh DIAGNOSTICS -.Bl -diag -.It "awi0: awi_pccard_probe: bad banner:" -The device failed to initialize its firmware. -.It "awi0:
