They may change without warning. This is not meant to be a complete API guide; there are comments in the header files for that. text/html 2009-07-01T20:12:55-07:00 http://etherboot.org/dokuwiki-2017-02-19b/soc/2009/oremanj/notes/modules?rev=1246504375&do=diff Joshua Oreman: 802.11 wireless development Interesting Idea: Loading part of gPXE over the network Update 6/29: After talking with Michael, I've realized everything the below idea would offer can also be achieved by chainloading a fully-featured gPXE over the network using a minimal ROM-burned gPXE. That simple solution is orders of magnitude easier than implementing proper modularisation, and so the below becomes something of a curiosity. To it I say: text/html 2009-05-27T17:05:13-07:00 http://etherboot.org/dokuwiki-2017-02-19b/soc/2009/oremanj/notes/protocol?rev=1243469113&do=diff Joshua Oreman: 802.11 wireless development 802.11 protocol notes Functional overview An 802.11 wireless network is composed of a set of nodes (called STAs in the standard) communicating over radio frequencies in the 2.4GHz (b/g/n) or 5GHz (a/n) unlicensed band. text/html 2009-06-22T14:39:04-07:00 http://etherboot.org/dokuwiki-2017-02-19b/soc/2009/oremanj/notes/start?rev=1245706744&do=diff Joshua Oreman: 802.11 wireless development Notes * Information on the 802.11 protocol, as culled from the oft-convoluted 802.11-2007 standard. (Note that the new high-speed 802.11n standard is not finalized and costs a fairly significant sum, so gPXE will probably not support it, at least at first. 802.11-2007 is free from IEEE's website.)
