They have some cheaper models available also. I believe Atheros is your best supported chipset option for host access points. I dont believe FreeBSD or pfsense have 802.11ac support yet. I initially ran pfsense on it without issue, but switched to stock freebsd because I prefer it. Regards, Ben > -- -- From: Benjamin Woods woodsb02@gmail.com
