<p class="Pp">The <code class="Nm">iwm</code> driver provides support for Intel
    Wireless 3160, 3165, 3168, 4165, 7260, 7265, 8260, and 8265 PCIe Mini Card
    Dual Band network adapters.</p>
<p class="Pp">By default, the <code class="Nm">iwm</code> driver configures the
    adapter for BSS operation (aka infrastructure mode). This mode requires the
    use of an access point.</p>
<p class="Pp">For more information on configuring this device, see
