Hi I have just got a DN2820FYKH to build an xbmc media center player. All that works fine, but it got me thinking that it would be a cool little box to replace my bsd router vm, which would allow me not to run my main machine 24x7. Ideally the DN2820FYKH would act as my main router, with all the related services and it would be my wireless AP as well. I have got AP working under linux fine, but I cant get freebsd to see the wifi card (i dont think its supported in current yet). Therefore I have two options, one wait until it is supported, or two, replace the mini pcie card for another supported 802.11n card. Last time I looked at running an freebsd AP over 802.11n, it was all a bit new and flaky. I was wondering if anyone can recommend any cards that are known to work well as a 802.11n AP, along with any other tips with regard to setting up 802.11n APs under freebsd. I have tried the latest freebsd-11 memstick and that didnt work, even after kldloading lots of iw type modules k
