---help---
This option enables the legacy wireless extensions
(wireless network interface configuration via ioctls.)
- Wireless extensions will be replaced by cfg80211 and
- will be required only by legacy drivers that implement
- wireless extension handlers. This option does not
- affect the wireless-extension backward compatibility
- code in cfg80211.

- Say N (if you can) unless you know you need wireless
- extensions for external modules.
+ Say Y unless you've upgraded all your userspace to use
+ nl80211 instead of wireless extensions.
