About a year ago, a gave up on having an athn in an ALIX as may home AP,
and just connected a TP-Link AP. That has its disadvantages, but the
actual wifi traffic got much better in terms of reliability and throughput.

Would people now recommend running an AP "natively",
i.e. a wifi card (plus the anthenas) on and OpenBSD box
over running wifi over a dedicated device?

(The clients that mostly had a problem were androids and ipads,
laptops ran more smoothly; but the TP-Link throughput is
a multiple of what the athn-in-ALIX used to do.)
