32 Say Y if you have a Metricom radio and intend to use Starmode Radio
33 IP. STRIP is a radio protocol developed for the MosquitoNet project
34 to send Internet traffic using Metricom radios. Metricom radios are
35 small, battery powered, 100kbit/sec packet radio transceivers, about
36 the size and weight of a cellular telephone. (You may also have heard
37 them called "Metricom modems" but we avoid the term "modem" because
38 it misleads many people into thinking that you can plug a Metricom
39 modem into a phone line and use it as a modem.)
40
41 You can use STRIP on any Linux machine with a serial port, although
42 it is obviously most useful for people with laptop computers. If you
43 think you might get a Metricom radio in the future, there is no harm
44 in saying Y to STRIP now, except that it makes the kernel a bit
45 bigger.
