Hi Darrick That is really bad news :-(
For me that seems to be a pity. I am using astlinux as my central router, netboot server and, of course, asterisk server. It works absolutely great. If you drop wifi support, one would need to buy and add another separate WLAN router. Seems to be quite a waste and would also yield a pretty inefficient setup with two routers. So, please keep the wifi support. Just leave it the way it is now. No new development necessary. No special maintenance either. That should not be too much work then for the developers, I hope. I would be very grateful. Michael P.S.: Is there anything else you are planning to drop in the new release?
