In linux kernel since version 2.6.17 (release Date: 2006-06-17)
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.
Say N (if you can) unless you know you need wireless
extensions for external modules.
