I'm off to the US next week and I thought I'd buy some (cheaper) wireless kit whilst I'm out there. I would like to run 100mb wireless (802.11g?) on both my laptop and my home server which I guess means that I'd like a recommendation for both pccard as well as pci. I'm running -current on the laptop and -stable on the server, although this can be upgraded to 5.x if necessary. The server is currently an ethernet bridging firewall (IPFW) and ideally I'd like to be able to filter the wireless segment also. Is it possible to using a wireless card in the machine and be able to filter at a MAC address level? I want a bit of control of the network. Is there a recommended configuration?
