Is there a scenario where a NIC works with m0n0wall but does not support VLAN/802.11q? I tried using m0n0 last Friday night and the card sort of worked (some traffic passed) but all in all traffic was being stopped somewhere and I couldnt tell if it was the card or the configuration. I mean, I added an optional int just to test, added rules to 'pass * traffic from src * to dest *' on all int's and everyone who was simply subnetted saw in/out traffic. People on a VLAN didn't. Is there a special VLAN hardware compatability list different than those that just work generically without doing anything special?

Depending on the NIC you will use, make sure it is supported in FreeBSD >From personal experience Netgear FA310tx doesn't work well with FreeBSD 5.x. I know this isn't a 1 gig card, but the point is to get a card that works with the version of FreBSD. I am currently using DLink which works well.
