I don't have a WRAP but I use the 4G pfSense 1.2.3 nanobsd image with an ALIX.2D2 as WiFi access point. There are only the limitations of the nanobsd versus a full installation on the ALIX if you install on a compact flash card. For me the ALIX is a nice piece of hardware that get enterprise features with pfSense. Very nice to configure with the GUI. I love it. So I think if you can handle the NanoBSD booting problem you should try it before buying new hardware. It is well documentet at http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/NanoBSD_on_WRAP -- Best regards Dominik Schips
