I've got an old Linksys router hanging off of my cable modem that is several 
years old and is about to die (very poor wireless throughput should be 54 mb 
and is 2, runs hot, and "buzzes" while turned on).  I've got an older PC that 
would great as a router....however I also need it to be a wireless access point 
for my house.  It has a PCI wireless network card (A 54G Belkin, not sure of 
the exact model).  I know FreeBSD is technically capable for acting as my DHCP, 
DNS, router, gateway box if properly configured.  The question is, can it use 
that wireless card to act as a access point instead of a client (how the card 
is intended to be used)?

Also, any links anyone can provide on how to setup a FreeBSD box to act as home 
router/gateway would be much appreciated!
