Alan, > I want to build a pbx and wifi router based on the soekris net5501 > (together with its standard case), a tdm400 card and a mini-pci wifi card. I run a net5501 as a PBX and wireless AP (and a lot more - see http://menhennitt.com.au). However, all phones on the PBX are IP phones or connected via ATAs, so I can't comment on the TDM400 card. > On the wireless side I'm thinking about getting a CM9 (802.11 a/b/g) > or a R52n mini-pci (802.11 a/b/g/n) card. I use a CM9 card and have been having some problems (see http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg105623.html). Whether this is due to hardware faults, the speed of the net5501, or FreeBSD, I don't know.
For the antenna, you need to drill a hole in the back of the case and run a pigtail to an external antenna. In Australia, http://yawarra.com.au supplied me with all the bits - I'm sure you can find an equivalent local supplier.
