RE: [pfSense Support] Output (mwatt) of a minipci wireless card
The reson for me is that there is only 100mW (as a maximum) legal here. When i would use 400mW i could get a fine for it. But when i use lets say 200mW the chance i get a fine is not that big.

[pfSense Support] Dual Wan with PPPOE and Static isp
Hi all, I already read these posts : http://www.mail-archive.com/support@pfsense.com/msg01183.html http://www.mail-archive.com/support@pfsense.com/msg00326.html http://www.mail-archive.com/support@pfsense.com/msg00084.html but I can't get dual wan working with a PPPOE link for first cnx. I tried to do this config: Wrap with 128 meg and 128 flash, latest version of pfsense 0.84x LAN : lan side WAN : pppoe link with fixed ip address OPT1 : One static dsl link (ip and gw can be configured no dhcp) My first goal was to use the Static link for primary link but pppoe is not possible on the opt1 so I used the OPT1 for the static config. The first link is used for normal use (mail/http/game ...). The second link is used only for the Ipsec connexion to another offices (using Pfsense and Monowall) and used as backup link. I put a static routing for the remote ipsec gateways (using the opt2 gateway for next hop). This config is working fine, but when the dsl link come down (modem down or dsl link disconnected on the modem), the routing table seems to be flushed somewhere as the static routing for the ipsec gateway is down, and no more traceroute is possible to the Ipsec remote gateways. I also have some warning on the web interface about somes rules not applied. Just to be sure, I tried the same configuration on my lab only with static fixed ip on WAN and OPT1 , and all is working fine. I really want to remove my cisco's using DMVPN as the price is not the same... Does anyone already tested and validated the dual wan using pppoe on the first link ? BTW, I downgraded my wrap to the latest stable 0.70.4 version as I don't want to have errors on the web interface :) Regards, Raphaël - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: [pfSense Support] Output (mwatt) of a minipci wireless card
HI In my experience its not always about mw transmitted. Using a proper antenna and a radio with decent receive sensitivity usually gets the job done better and you don't interfere and piss off your neighbours(who call the authorities to give you a fine, because you are polluting the band). Shouting the loudest doesn't always work(unless you are going for distance, in which case you would use 2x 400mw and very directional antennas) Remember also that the devices you are going to be connecting to will also have to transmit at 400mw in order for you to establish a connection. Most devices transmit at 100mw .. so you will see the ap but you will never be able to associate.

It's safe to nuke /rescue. Just keep in mind if we ever get into a inconsistent state (read: failed upgrade) then there is no recourse except to reinstall.

Things seem to be working, but I get a filesystem full error at about %60. I've formatted the card each time and I'm not adding a swap. The strange thing is 0.82.4 CD installed to this card perfectly (I re-installed 0.82.4 temporarily). Do I need more space?
