Hello Edwin, greats! Many thanks for your detailed information ! I had a look into the Alix 2D13/6F2 I found
http://www.amazon.co.uk/ALIX-2D13-Mainboard-Computer-Mini-PCI-Engines/dp/B004Z0SMAG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1364898269&sr=8-1 which is one of the model you are talking about but it does provide an wireless chip, can you suggest me other models ? Where can I find more models from Ubiquity ? It seems to be a real good brand but I don't find a lot of things from amazon and I am looking for a reseller in the eu zone (Netherlands). Thanks a lot for your suggestion. Pietro.
