While m0n0wall doesn't support the Altheros chip required for G, it still lives very happily on my home network running the Netgate 2511 card, http://www.netgate.com/product_info.php?cPath=27_44_64&products_id=132&osCsi d=7623b3dcd897a. While it is only B, it works very well for me. I have it running on a Soekris 4511 on its own subnet, I can PPTP to my LAN with my laptop to transfer files or print. A few of my neighbors occasionally use it but I don't mind. With captive portal and traffic shaping, my line is never flooded and I know who is using it. M0n0wall just plain rocks no matter how you use it! :-) Dave > On 6/16/06, mailme at bryen dot com <mailme at bryen dot com> wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I'm new to this M0n0wall deal but I'd like to give it a > shot and see > > how I can use it to rebuild my home network perimeter and test it > > before deploying it on several business networks that I support. > > > > I looked at Soekris and saw some interesting devices I > could use with > > M0n0wall, but none come with wireless.
