On this page, we want to collect information about the status of specific WLAN chipsets, NOT the devices. Linux drivers are nearly always generic drivers, so different devices with the same hardware are driven by the same driver; normally the system doesn't even know about the vendor of the device. In addition WLAN devices tend to change the real hardware in them very often any without any information to the users.
