23 .Nd Moschip MCS7730/MCS7830/MCS7832 USB Ethernet driver
25 To compile this driver into the kernel,
26 place the following lines in your
27 kernel configuration file:
28 .Bd -ragged -offset indent
38 Alternatively, to load the driver as a
39 module at boot time, place the following line in
41 .Bd -literal -offset indent
47 driver provides support for USB Ethernet adapters based on the
48 Moschip MCS7730/MCS7830/MCS7832 chipset.
50 The adapters that contain the Moschip MCS7730/MCS7830/MCS7832 chipset
51 will operate at 100Base-TX and full-duplex.
53 The Moschip contains a 10/100
54 Ethernet MAC with MII interface and is designed to work with both
55 Ethernet and HomePNA transceivers.
56 Although designed to interface with
57 100Mbps peripherals, this only works with USB 2.0. The existing USB 1.0
58 standard specifies a maximum transfer speed of 12Mbps.
59 USB 1.0 Users should therefore not expect to actually achieve 100Mbps speeds
62 The Moschip supports a 64-bit multicast hash table, single perfect
63 filter entry for the station address and promiscuous mode.
65 received and transmitted over separate USB bulk transfer endpoints.
