      It is possible with a suitable USB wifi device. But a real access point is going to work better in most ways!

      What are you trying to do?

          Ok, well better to use a separate access point. You can porition it for better coverage. You can use .11ac.

          If you want to run Freeradius on the firewall I would not choose the SG-1000.

                    @mehdi92 First off, I misread your question and thought you were asking for good Access Point hardware.

                    give an example of ubiquit who I can limit my traffic data and set time usage for each user!!

                    Second, I'm not sure why you think you're in a position to demand anything from me. I am not your employee.

                      You can do that with Radius accounting in pfSense but it's quite a complex setup. It also doesn't scale well to a large number of users if you have individual accounts in Freeradius. The GUI is not setup for that. Better to use a separate Radius server if you need that.
                      It would not run well on an SG-1000, if you go that route it should be installed on larger hardware.
