>Description:
NetGear have produced both a WG311 and a WG311T PCI wireless adapter.  The latter is based on an Atheros AR5212 chip while the former is not.

The ath_hal(4) man page incorrectly lists the NetGear WG311 adapter as being supported by the ath_hal driver, whereas it is the WG311T that should be listed.


>How-To-Repeat:
n/a
>Fix:
Correct the man page by appending 'T' to the NetGear WG311 adapter model name.
