      Hi.

      Can someone please recommend how to incorporate/improve these current
      2 networks to allow the use of PFSense (3 NIC card) ?

      1. Linksys RV042 Router
                  |
          Linksys SRW208 Managed Switch–---------------Linksys WAP 200 Access Point 192.168.1.x
                  |                                                          |                |                |
          Wired Linux fileserver 192.168.2.x                  Notebook-1    Notebook-2  Notebook-3

      2.  Linksys RV042 Router
                  |
          Linksys RV042 Router (Static Routing)------------Linksys WAP 200 Access Point
                  |                                                          |                |                |
          Wired Linux fileserver                                  Notebook-1    Notebook-2  Notebook-3

      Notes;
      1. Acces Point wireless & wired file server are on different subnets but need to access each other
      2. VPN access from the outside will be available for 1 client at a time
      3. Security objective is to add redundency in case of breach of wireless, file server will still have
        another layer to get through.

      Thank you much.

        Not quite sure what you want to do except for using pfSense in your setup.

        Are those two different sites with individual access to the internet on WAN?
        Sounds like a basic 3NICs setup with pfSense.

        WAN to WAN
        LAN to FileServers and
        OPT1 to WAP200

        Where's your specific question/need?
