Alix 2C2 as an OUTDOOR Wireless Access Point

rt_rex · Dec 3, 2007, 2:42 PM

Are the wireless problems solved in this latest release (1.2RC3),i am asking this because when the 1.2 came out the wireless was not working very well on freebsd 6.2 :-
I also need your opinion about this board for an outdoor access point . ???
I believe the specs say up to 50ºC of temperature. ???

And it´s very hot in the summer up to 40ºC, inside an outdoor case with a working hardware it get´s even hotter .
