      Hi,

      I want to set up multiple stations/ap's on the same wireless card (ala madwifi). pfSense uses madwifi for wireless (or am i completely mistaken ???), so is it possible to manually configure this?

        pfSense uses the same HAL as madwifi, but pfSense is FreeBSD not linux, so the driver is not the same. The HAL does support 1 STA + multiple AP (multiple SSIDs) but the driver code for FreeBSD does not. If/when this is added it will most likely be supported in later pfSense versions, but for now this is not possible.
