Ok then=20 If it is an ADSL then surely you would need the D Link , but if it is Wimax or and other than that then I think it is possible to use only the FBSD box. Anyway I recommend you can look for one of the many software such as MonoWall which is a BSD based, it is very easy to setup with your PC having two or more NIC. You can authenticate your user based on voucher's to a Radius or anything you would like.

As I understand OP the DLink is required for the DSL connection and=20 provides Ethernet to the FBSD box which then has a second interface=20 connecting to the AP. I got a similar setup. You cannot take the DSL router out of that setup, but it should be=20 possible with some routers to have that be the bridge (pppoe I think).=20 In that setup the FBSD must do the nat. BR, Erik
