URAL(4)			 BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual		       URAL(4)

NAME
     ural -- Ralink Technology RT2500USB IEEE 802.11 driver

SYNOPSIS
     To	compile	support	for the
     ural driver into your kernel, place the following lines in	your kernel
	  configuration	file:

	   device ehci
	   device uhci
	   device ohci
	   device usb
	   device ural
	   device wlan

	  Alternatively, to load the
     ural driver at boot time, place the following line	in loader.conf(5):

		if_ural_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION
     The ural driver supports USB 2.0 wireless adapters	based on the RT2500USB
     chipset.

     The RT2500USB chipset consists of two integrated chips, a RT2570 MAC/BBP
     and a radio transceiver (the model	of which depends on the	card revi-
     sion).

     The RT2522, RT2523, RT2524, RT2525, RT2525e and RT2526 radio transceivers
     operate in	the 2.4GHz band	(802.11b/g) whereas the	RT5222 is a dual-band
     radio transceiver that can	operate	in the 2.4GHz and 5.2GHz bands
     (802.11a).

EXAMPLES
     Join an existing BSS network (i.e., connect to an access point):

	   ifconfig ural0 inet 192.168.0.20 netmask 0xffffff00

     Join a specific BSS network with network name "my_net":

	   ifconfig ural0 inet 192.168.0.20 netmask 0xffffff00 ssid my_net

     Join a specific BSS network with 40-bit WEP encryption:

	   ifconfig ural0 inet 192.168.0.20 netmask 0xffffff00 ssid my_net \
	       wepmode on wepkey 0x1234567890

     Join a specific BSS network with 104-bit WEP encryption:

	   ifconfig ural0 inet 192.168.0.20 netmask 0xffffff00 ssid my_net \
	       wepmode on wepkey 0x01020304050607080910111213
