NAME
     cnw - Netwave AirSurfer Wireless LAN interface

SYNOPSIS
     cnw0 at pcmcia?

DESCRIPTION
     The cnw interface provides access to a theoretical 1 Mb/s wireless Ether-
     net network based on the Netwave AirSurfer Wireless LAN (formerly known
     as the Xircom Netwave Wireless LAN).  It use 32K of I/O memory mapped to
     the card along with either 16 I/O ports or 4K of additional I/O memory
     for access to command registers.  The driver currently only supports the
     use of the additional 4K of I/O memory.

     In use, the cards appear to achieve up to a 420Kb/s transfer rate, though
     a transfer rate between 250Kb/s and 350Kb/s is typical.  The card oper-
     ates in the 2.4Ghz frequency range and is subject to interference from
     microwaves as well as earth.

     You probably need to set -pccard_iowait to on in /etc/boot.default (see
     boot(8))  for this device to work.
