So im looking around for a Wireless Access Point but finding a Good, inexpensive one for what i need seems to be harder then i had initially thought.
Ive commited to making my own pfSense router. The idea is to use that along side a gig network switch, to network my whole house. I Also want Wireless N Around the house, but finding a GOOD Access point is a Bit tricky.
The Goal is to get GOOD Coverage over the whole house, with out spending a Butt Load(actual unit of measurment) Of money!
The router, Switch, and home server will all be in the basement, So simply adding a WIFI Card to the pfSense Router is not going give me sufficient coverage on the second floor.
I know what your thinking! have FUN, And make a SECOND pfSense router for the main floor with wifi! I wouldnt be able to get it small enough to be out of sight, and i dont want a second router, i want a simple access point.
I need to have an access point on the main floor. Can anyone help me with this? in second post, ill link to a few that im looking at. If anyone has any thoughts or recomendations, PLEASE Make/State them!
Ill try to keep this nice and organized, and up to date so that others can use it who are looking for similar help!
The network switch i would like to have is this TP-Link TL-SG1016D 16 Port 10/100/1000
