+ * @brief       Driver for the Arduino W5100 Ethernet Shield
+ *
+ * Usage
+ * =====
+ *
+ * The driver is enabled by using the module `shield_w5100`, e.g. with:
+ *
+ * ```
+ * USEMODULE=shield_w5100 make BOARD=arduino-due -C examples/gnrc_networking
+ * ```
+ *
+ * It depends on @ref drivers_w5100 and provides nothing more than the providing
+ * the correct configuration. For this, it depends on the `arduino_pins`,
+ * `arduino_spi`, `arduino_shield_uno` and the `arduino_shield_isp` feature.
+ * It should work out of the box for any fully Arduino UNO compatible board
+ * (including the ISP header) and correct I/O mapping (`arduino_*`) features.
