Or do you just mean that you're going to put a > wireless card in the router? I use a Pentium 4 machine running pfSense as my firewall/router. I have a standalone wireless a/b/g/n access point wired into the internal LAN side of the router. I use this setup (as opposed to a wireless NIC in the router) since I already had the AP on hand, I don't have to worry about firmware/drivers/compatibility, and pfSense doesn't currently support 802.11n directly. I believe that this is a fairly typical setup for people that use a PC as a router... and especially with the pfSense crowd. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
