+.Nm ure
+.Nd "RealTek RTL8152 USB to Fast Ethernet controller driver"
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+To compile this driver into the kernel,
+place the following lines in your
+kernel configuration file:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "device uhci"
+.Cd "device ohci"
+.Cd "device usb"
+.Cd "device miibus"
+.Cd "device uether"
+.Cd "device ure"
+.Ed
+.Pp

+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for USB Ethernet adapters based on the RealTek
+RTL8152 USB to Fast Ethernet controller chip.
+.Pp
+The RTL8152 contains an integrated Fast Ethernet MAC, which supports
+both 10 and 100Mbps speeds in either full or half duplex.
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports the following media types:
+.Bl -tag -width ".Cm 10baseT/UTP"
+.It Cm autoselect

+.Pa /etc/rc.conf
+file.
+.It Cm 10baseT/UTP
+Set 10Mbps operation.
+The
+.Cm mediaopt
+option can also be used to select either
+.Cm full-duplex
+or
+.Cm half-duplex
+modes.
+.It Cm 100baseTX
+Set 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet) operation.
+The
+.Cm mediaopt
+option can also be used to select either
+.Cm full-duplex
