I am trying to replace an Apple Extreme base station with an OpenBSD

tried uses run, urtw, or urtwn and the stores around here don't seem
to have any USB wireless NIC that uses ral or rum.
Have you thought about using the Apple Extreme in bridge mode?
I used a time capsule for a while, and it was the most reliable access
point I've ever used. It's slightly annoying because you have to
configure it using the magic apple app, but if you're just using it in
bridge mode that's a one time operation and then you never touch it.
Thank you very much. I was hoping to replace the Apple Extreme. If I
can't find any USB or PCI wireless cards that supports hostap
reliably, I will try what you suggested.
Thanks again,
Vijay
