Hi list,

I currently have a FreeBSD machine that acts as a router and
fileserver for my local home network. I'm hoping to set up a wireless
access point so I don't have to steal my neighbour's wireless. The PC
I'm using for FreeBSD has no free PCI slots so I'm forced to settle
for a USB device. I'm hoping you all can suggest to me some models
that have worked for you as an access point. If it counts, I'll be
running FreeBSD 7.

Thanks for any suggestions,

Ross
