Cellular drivers have the same two separate cases as Wi-Fi. If they use an external IP stack, the driver implements the Network stack API. If they use the internal IP stack, LwIP, then they implement the Serial PPP driver.
On Mesh networks, Nanostack uses IEEE 802.15.4 radios for transmitting and receiving packets. The RF driver implements the `NanostackRfPhy` API.
