What is a good, compatible mini pci-e wireless card?
-
Having just bought a Gigabyte GA-H97N-WIFI mobo I can tell you that the mini-wifi card and the secondary atheros nic do not want to work "out of the box" with Pfsense. The mini wifi looks like it's an Intel, but I cannot find any documentation on it as to what model it is. In any event pfsense does not seem to see it. What is a good mini-pci-e card to replace it with?

Intel nics work really nice with pfsense

Can you give me a model you know that does? As stated the "intel" mini-pci card I have appears not to work. Thanks!

That does not apply to the wireless cards.
Check pfsense store or another vendor for compatible cards

A thread with some cards reported to work with 2.2.
Some intel cards might work, but AP mode is not supported.
I've tried a dell card with atheros 9462 chip without much success (this is a combined wifi/BT card - don't get any of those).
Now waiting for an ar9280 card to arrive, which should be well supported in FreeBSD 10.1. They can be found for 13 dollars on eBay.
