The Microserver Gen8s are really nice machines for the application you describe, once you set the disk controller to something sensible (as previously reported). When it comes to your primary question I don't have a good answer, but in case those boards are not suppurted it's worth keeping in mind one other option: get the highest quality access point or 'wireless router' you can afford, configure it as access point only (no dhcp or routing, leave that to the OpenBSD tools) - Peter -- Peter N.
