Maybe the pfSense project might have some useful info for you.

I have been having a lot of performance issues with my home
wireless, and
am considering replacing the current APs early next year. I wanted
something a little more flexible than the standard consumer AP,
without
spending the money for a high end Cisco AP (I do realize that the

will run me in the range of their low end APs). My early searching

should be able to get an Alix board, Wireless Card, and Antennas
for around
$300.

Probably should have been more clear, when I was asking about FreeBSD
on something like Alix, left out the "as an access point" that I was
thinking. I have a pfSense system running on an Alix board as my
Router/Firewall, incredibly happy with it, but already using a Soekris
VPN1411: Crypto accelerator in the miniPCI slot to help out with my
IPSec tunnel to work. Otherwise I would just add a wireless card to
test it out on that box. Definitely don't want wireless and router
together long term though, as I like to be able to take one down without
the other when doing upgrades.
