help
This is an alternative driver for various Realtek RTL8XXX
parts written to utilize the Linux mac80211 stack.
The driver is known to work with a number of RTL8723AU,
RL8188CU, RTL8188RU, RTL8191CU, RTL8192CU, RTL8723BU, RTL8192EU,
RTL8188FU, RTL8188EU, RTL8710BU (aka RTL8188GU), and RTL8192FU
devices.
This driver is under development and has a limited feature
set. In particular it does not yet support 40MHz channels
and power management. However it should have a smaller
memory footprint than the vendor drivers and benefits
from the in kernel mac80211 stack.
It can coexist with the rtlwifi driver but you will need
to control which module you wish to load.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
be called rtl8xxxu. If unsure, say N.
config RTL8XXXU_UNTESTED
bool "Include support for untested Realtek 8xxx USB devices (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on RTL8XXXU
help
This option enables detection of Realtek 8723/8188/8191/8192 WiFi
USB devices which have not been tested directly by the driver
author or reported to be working by third parties.
