RTWNFW(4)		    Kernel Interfaces Manual		     RTWNFW(4)

NAME
       rtwnfw -- Firmware Module for Realtek Wireless driver

SYNOPSIS
       To  compile  this  module  into the kernel, place the following line in
       your kernel configuration file:

	     device rtwnfw

       This will include all firmware images inside the	kernel.	 If  you  want
       to  pick	only the firmware image	for your network adapter choose	one of
       the following:

	     device rtwn-rtl8188eefw
	     device rtwn-rtl8188eufw
	     device rtwn-rtl8192cfwE_B
	     device rtwn-rtl8192cfwE
	     device rtwn-rtl8192cfwT
	     device rtwn-rtl8192cfwU
	     device rtwn-rtl8192eufw
	     device rtwn-rtl8812aufw
	     device rtwn-rtl8821aufw

       Alternatively, to load all firmware images as a module  at  boot	 time,
       place the following line	in loader.conf(5):

	     rtwn-rtl8188eefw_load="YES"
	     rtwn-rtl8188eufw_load="YES"
	     rtwn-rtl8192cfwE_B_load="YES"
	     rtwn-rtl8192cfwE_load="YES"
	     rtwn-rtl8192cfwT_load="YES"
	     rtwn-rtl8192cfwU_load="YES"
	     rtwn-rtl8192eufw_load="YES"
	     rtwn-rtl8812aufw_load="YES"
	     rtwn-rtl8821aufw_load="YES"
