  Description     : The iwlwifi project provides a driver which utilizes the new mac80211 subsystem for the Intel® PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection adapter.

The iwlwifi project provides a driver which utilizes the new mac80211 subsystem for the Intel® PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection adapter.

In addition to using the new mac80211 subsystem, this project uses a new microcode image which removes the need for the user space regulatory daemon for this adapter. This change should help to simplify installation, development, and redistribution of this driver package.
