+The following binary firmware files are (c) Conexant, and do not fall
+under the GPL or MPL. They are assumed to have the same license as
+their windows client drivers, ie everyone who bought a card that came
+with a windows driver already has a copy of and license to use the
+necessary firmware, albeit possibly an older version. These are bundled
+with linux-wlan-ng for convenience only, as many newer adapters
+(eg Prism 3 w/SSF) require a firmware download in order to function at
+all.
+
+Primary (Basic hardware functionality) firmware images:
+
+af010104.hex Prism 2.5/3 AMD Flash
+ak010104.hex Prism 2.5/3 SST Flash
+pm010102.hex Prism 3 Short Serial Flash
+
+Secondary (STA/Adhoc/HostAP mode) firmware images:
+
+r1010701.hex Prism 2 PCMCIA adapters
+rf010804.hex Prism 2.5/3 PCI/PCMCIA adapters
+ru010803.hex Prism 2/3 USB adapters
+
+Tertiary firmware images (Firmware-based AP mode) are not bundled, as
+that requires an explicit license from Conexant to use, with explicit
+limitations on redistribution.
