  12. Saying Y here also enables the Wireless Extensions (creates

  17. variations of Wireless LANs, regardless of their type (as long as
  18. the driver supports Wireless Extension). Another advantage is that
  19. these parameters may be changed on the fly without restarting the

  33. IP. STRIP is a radio protocol developed for the MosquitoNet project
  34. (on the WWW at <http://mosquitonet.stanford.edu/>) to send Internet
  35. traffic using Metricom radios. Metricom radios are small, battery
  36. powered, 100kbit/sec packet radio transceivers, about the size and
  37. weight of a cellular telephone. (You may also have heard them called
  38. "Metricom modems" but we avoid the term "modem" because it misleads
  39. many people into thinking that you can plug a Metricom modem into a
  40. phone line and use it as a modem.)
  41. You can use STRIP on any Linux machine with a serial port, although
  42. it is obviously most useful for people with laptop computers. If you
