Hi Peter,

Most important driver control functions:
 - RSSI                         -- get current Rssi value (used only for
signal icon strength)
   - Responce: SSID rssi value
 - LINKSPEED              -- get current Linkspeed value (can be ignored)
   - Responce:  LinkSpeed value
 - MACADDR                -- get wlan BSSID
   - Responce: Macaddr = XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
 - START                      -- start wlan driver/FW
 - STOP                       --  stop wlan driver/FW - in the meaning of
turning it off
 - SCAN-CHANNELS    -- set proper regulatory domain

Thanks,
Dmitry
