[pfSense] mPCIe Recommendations?

2013-02-11 Thread Tim Nelson
Greetings-

I've just (unsuccessfully) tried setting up an Atheros AR5280 based mPCIe card 
for use with pfSense 2.0.2. The results were not spectacular. Errors included 
randomly dropping traffic, dropping carrier, and the infamous scrolling errors 
'ath0: stuck beacon...'.

So, I'm on a quest for a new card. Suggestions? Can someone tell me a known 
(guaranteed) working mPCIe interface card that works with pfSense? Use case is 
simple indoor access point functionality as part of a SOHO firewall.

Thanks!
