Suggestions for wireless-lan / WiFi Card
-
Hi all,
I am planning to implement my pfSense 2.0 RC3 to be a WiFi router. I need the following suggestions from you guys:A wifi PCI/PCI-E card, 150Mbps at-least; 300Mbps desired;
Are there any limitations for number of simultaneous wireless/WiFi connections? ie.) the Number of clients connected at any given time.. Is there a Max or what?
Can i use MAC based IP allocation for them?

With those speeds not going to happen. Please use search to find out

There is no support yet for 802.11n features (including speeds 150Mbps or more) in FreeBSD/pfSense.

None I know of other than the more active users the less bandwidth each gets.

I have DHCP configured to assign a fixed IP address to most of my WiFi clients based on the client's MAC address.
