This card can do up to 11Mbps at 400mW and 54Mbps at 200mW in the 2.4GHz band. That’s like, really fast.
pfSense® software has arrived
Get it pre-installed or DIY
The pfSense® project has released v1.0 BETA 2 and we’re pleased to begin offering it as an option on all of our boxes and CF cards.
If you prefer, you can also download it from our OS images page and DIY.
The pfSense® software is derived from monowall, but has a number of different goals, including packet filtering, using FreeBSD 6 as its base and being able to extend it with packages (although not yet on embedded systems).
It has a great WebGUI interface and there are some cool tutorials available on the pfSense® website.
We think it’s definitely worth a try.
Need less? Pay less!
