I'll have to test it. It's there, I might as well use it. There are a quite 
a few people using PFSense on these (Symantec 5420 and variations thereof). 
I also think that one of their drivers handles it out of the box. 

What am I going to do with all those ethernet ports? There are six. Red will 
be handled by the Solos-pci, Blue by a usb2 wifi dongle. That leaves Green 
and Orange. If only I could afford a Mansion and full time staff so I can 
make a bunch of subnets for them to use in their Quarters.  

As a side note: I was able to get a USB2 Ubiquiti SR71 WLAN working with 
your WlanAP addon including Draft N I think. It has two antenna ports and I 
think there are none built in. It required a chunk of firmware to work. It's 
rather powerful. It shows as Draft N  using my laptop and wifi data sniffing 
programs hut also shows 54mbs as the max. I wish I had gone with Ubiquiti 
stuff a lot sooner.
