I have all my PCs including the FreeBSD box attached to a switch, also attached is a DSL router... I use the FreeBSD box as a gateway so that it can handle all the DHCP and DNS stuff... I've bought a wireless AP and have plugged this into the switch also, this gives me wireless access to the whole network, but I want to restrict this to basically just internet access... I've tried installing a second ethernet card in the FreeBSD box and hanging the Wireless AP off of that... I've set up a bridge and IPFIREWALL, but the second NIC cannot see the FreeBSD box, I think this is by design, you would normally want the bridge to be transparent, but as this box acts as my gateway I need it to be seen... Is there a way around this, or a better way of doing it?
