Providing wireless connectivity

[ajoeiam]

Greetings

OPNsense does a great job of routing (wired) and providing a firewall.

What is a good or fairly simple way to provide access for wireless clients?

(After the router how do I provide wireless services for the various non-wired clients - - - ?)

Hi. Due to the limited compability of wireless devices in freebsd, the best next thing is to plug a cable from the LAN into a switch and plug an access point into the switch. The important thing is to put the access point (AP) in that mode i.e. no routing done by them. Some need to be put in bridge mode, some already are set that way.
