I'm looking at rebuilding my OpenBSD firewall to include a wireless access point using a discrete card rather than an external access point.
Can I just verify : athn(4) is a decent choice, but the docs are a bit out of date (CVS commits and comments seem to suggest power saving has been fixed, and later chipsets such as 9002/9003 are now supported?) Does OpenBSD support simultaneous 802.11a and 802.11b/g in a dual band card? I imagine the answer is 'no' (can't see how it's possible in ifconfig) - which makes the card I was previously considering (the JJPlus MR9 http://www.jjplus.com/?page_id=359) unrealistic. Thinking of the TL-WN951N (AR5008-3NG chipset) instead : http://www.cclonline.com/product/39855/TL-WN951N/Wireless-Adapters/TP-Link-300Mbps-Wireless-N-PCI-Adapter/NET1196/ Assuming the answer is no, any recommendations for an 802.11a AP capable card? I'm guessing 802.11n is some way off. Cheers! PK
