 This may be a dumb question, but I am a bit confused about the
 physical location requirements of the radius server.  Does it need
 to have an 802.11 card in order to function or can it be hooked to a
 land line ?  I would assume it needs the wireless nic but can anyone
 clear this up for me ?

  Why would you assume it needs a wireless NIC?  Nothing in the
documentation says that.

 Another question is regarding access point type.  We have some extra
 Linksys BEFW11s4v2 Access Points and I was wondering, has anyone
 tried using these ?

  That, I don't know.  But if they support RADIUS, they should work
with FreeRADIUS.

True, as I said I was a bit confused about physical location.  But the 
documentation doesn't not say it either.  I take it, that it doesn't need a 
wireless NIC then.  Thanks for clearing that part up.

Apparently Linksys isn't even sure if they support it.  I can't get a decent 
answer out of them.  There is no radius Tab anywhere in the config, but that 
doesn't neccesarily mean that it won't work (I hope).

Thanks for the response Alan.

Linksys APs do not support RADIUS or 802.1x.  As far as I know, they have no
plans to do so.
