        There should be no problems shipping to Canada - I am in Florida, USA and have no issues getting the boards over.

          I split this out as it's not related to the boot failure thread. Please don't hijack threads.

          I got my ALIX from a "special" non-public ordering page a couple months ago. They're more widely available now, but I'm not really sure how people are getting them. Further input from those of you who have gotten them more recently would be appreciated!

            I've placed a small order on the main pcengines store some weeks ago, and last week they've been shipped. Tho someone I know placed an order long before me and got his shipment some days later than me. The demand is probably pretty high.

                    Oh cool, yeah Netgate has them now. They're my preferred source for PC Engines and wireless hardware.

                    Board - http://www.netgate.com/product_info.php?products_id=450
                    Silver case - http://www.netgate.com/product_info.php?cPath=67&products_id=268
                    Red case - http://www.netgate.com/product_info.php?cPath=67&products_id=292
                    Black case - http://www.netgate.com/product_info.php?cPath=67&products_id=211
                    CF card - http://www.netgate.com/product_info.php?products_id=272
                    Power supply - http://www.netgate.com/product_info.php?products_id=357

                    $185 for the complete setup, that's about $40 cheaper than a complete WRAP setup!

                        Can you provide link to wifi card, antena and pigtail. Also can you confirm your setup is working correctly with pfsense.

                            I'd also recommend what covex linked.

                            see http://blog.pfsense.org/?p=155

                              The link on the wifi card says "Compatible with pfsense versions 1.01 only". Will it work with the latest release of pfsense?

                                  Everything that works on 1.0x will work on 1.2x.

                                    Thanks, I placed an order with Netgate.

                                    I have some CF cards laying around, what is the minimum size recommended size?

                                      Hi covex, are you using the 0.92 bios or the newer 0.98 bios.

                                      I'm wondering as there are people in another post that reports dhcp problems with the newer bios and I would like to know if that continues to be the case.

                                      thanks

                                        just got mine… i don't know what version of bios it is running on but it booted up right out of the box with 1.2rc3
                                        in putty i can't see the begining of the boot as it is all jebberish and clears out only when kernel starts.
