1) Use IOS sockets to implement a network driver
- How?

2) Use IOS sockets from userspace
- Only works with modified programs

3) Write a driver that can send and receive UDP packets using IOS sockets.
Implement IP over UDP using TUN/TAP in a similar way to IP over DNS.

- Requires another computer on the network to act as a proxy
+ Could work

4) Hope that the IOS interface for sending DS demos is low level
enough to do normal wifi.
- Requires reverse engineering work
- May not be possible

5) Replace IOS
- Requires lots of reverse engineering work
- Risky

6) Give up and use a USB wifi adaptor
