Wireless network cards for computers require control software to make them function (firmware, device drivers). This is a list of the status of some open-source drivers for 802.11 wireless network cards.
Wi-Fi 6E introduces operation at frequencies of or near 6 GHz, and superwide channels that are 160 MHz wide, [17] the frequency ranges these channels can occupy and the number of these channels depends on the country the Wi-Fi 6 network operates in. [18] To meet the goal of supporting dense 802.11 deployments, the following features have been ...
It was jointly developed by Microsoft and 3Com Corporation and is mostly used in Microsoft Windows.However, the open-source NDISwrapper and Project Evil driver wrapper projects allow many NDIS-compliant NICs to be used with Linux, FreeBSD and NetBSD.
Previously, the WDK was known as the Driver Development Kit (DDK) [4] and supported Windows Driver Model (WDM) development.
