I've discussed my wireless needs on the list before - I'm thinking that the
best solution would just be to buy a device that will take OpenWRT and serve
as an 802.11n access point.

My network configuration:

Desktop Linux workstation with ADSL PCI card installed, also running DHCP,
Bind, Postfix  and radvd for IPv6 - native IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack connection to
Internode and a static Ipv4 address. FreeSWITCH (for VoIP) is running directly
on this machine so it isn't behind NAT.

Gigabit switch -> printer, SIP phone, laptop on local LAN.

Now I want to add 802.11 wireless for phones, tablets, etc., both IPv4 and
IPv6. Given previous discussions and my research, I'm considering just buying
a device that will take OpenWRT, attaching it to the Gigabit switch and either
bridging the wired and wireless networks or routing the packets between
separate networks.

Hardware suggestions would be welcome, as would any alternative ideas on how
best to proceed with this. One option would be the devices that the Buffer
Bloat project is recommending - all of the drivers are open.
