After a hardware upgrade I ended up with a spare mini pc. Noticed these two icons and thought I might be able to use it as a WiFi access point with VLANs using OPNsense.

Is that possible? If so, what do I even need to buy to plug into there?

I don’t need it to do any fancy dhcp, dns or firewall stuff, I just need a WiFi access point with support for VLANs.

    Not really. If that’s a hard requirement, check out what is supported by openwrt or freshtomato.

    There was a similar question a few days ago with some points about wifi adapters vs access points brought up.

      It’s mostly just a strong preference, so if I can reasonably do it I’d like to. Some great info in that post, thanks for finding it!
