Hi Dirk: As an AP or as a client? PCEngines offers the Wistron CM9. Unfortunately I found that the RF-output power is far too low to be useful as an AP. The Compex WLM200X works better. Both cards need a dual band antenna. Both card's layout is for two antennas. I don't know of any card with only one. My trials with the WLM200X are not over. Clients connect fine to the AP on 2.4GHz and 5GHz but I didn't manage to assign an IP to the clients with DHCP although my DHCP server is working fine via wire in the same network. Up to now I couldn't manage to find out if that is a shortcoming of my understanding/setup or a shortcoming of the athn driver or a shortcoming of the hardware. Setup: Bridge--with--athn0---vether0---vr1 Dhcp server listens on vether0 Cheers Eike -- Eike Lantzsch ZP6CGE
