+.Sh NAME
+.Nm atu
+.Nd Atmel at76c50x 802.11B wireless network interfaces
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "atu* at uhub? port ?"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for wireless network adapters based around
+the Atmel at76c503, at76c503a, at76c505, and at76c505a USB chipsets.
+.Pp
+Supported features include 802.11 and 802.3 frames, power management, BSS,
+IBSS, ad-hoc, and host-based access point mode.
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+driver encapsulates all IP and ARP traffic as 802.11 frames, however
+it can receive either 802.11 or 802.3 frames.
+Transmit speed is selectable between 1Mbps fixed, 2Mbps fixed, 2Mbps
+with auto fallback, 5.5Mbps, 8Mbps, or 11Mbps depending on your hardware.
+.Pp
+Four different radio chipsets are used along with the device, each
+requiring a different firmware.
+.Pp
+By default, the
+.Nm
+driver configures the card for BSS operation (aka infrastructure
+mode).
+This mode requires the use of an access point (base station).
+.Pp
+For more information on configuring this device, see
+.Xr ifconfig 8 .
+.Pp
+The following devices are among those supported by the
+.Nm
+driver:
