Say Y if you have a Metricom radio and intend to use Starmode Radio | |
IP. STRIP is a radio protocol developed for the MosquitoNet project | |
to send Internet traffic using Metricom radios. Metricom radios are | |
small, battery powered, 100kbit/sec packet radio transceivers, about | |
the size and weight of a cellular telephone. (You may also have heard | |
them called "Metricom modems" but we avoid the term "modem" because | |
it misleads many people into thinking that you can plug a Metricom | |
modem into a phone line and use it as a modem.) | |
You can use STRIP on any Linux machine with a serial port, although | |
it is obviously most useful for people with laptop computers. If you | |
think you might get a Metricom radio in the future, there is no harm | |
in saying Y to STRIP now, except that it makes the kernel a bit | |
bigger. | |
To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be | |
called strip. |
