      Hi all,
      Did anyone uses pfsense as AP in production/enterprise ?
      If yes can you recommand some build options specially for minipcie cards options.I need one for 2.4 and one for 5 ghz if possible.
      The other opetions i have are mikrotik and ubiquiti (products like aerohive, ruckus and airionet are too expensive)

      Thanks

      pfsense 2.3.4 on Supermicro A1SRi-2758F + 8GB ECC + SSD

      Happy PfSense user :)

        Ubiquiti SR71-E

        Or based on Atheros AR5BHB92/AR9280 and AR9287 chip sets would also be running fine.

          I think you're nuts to even consider it.  Ubiquiti.

            Thanks for all your suggestions.
            I was also considered the mikrotik r11e series for the mW extra power since i need extra range.Ubiquiti still my first choice.
