[ale] OT: building a WAP with linux...

[Synco Gibraldter]

i use a linux machine as my wireless router -- i have had and used a few
different kinds of the pre-built 'applicances' and they're really all
crap.  linux is definitely the way you'll want to go.  and seeing as how
WEP is a joke, be sure to get ipsec up soon.
