[ale] [OT] Need an 802.11G *bridge*

[jknapka at kneuro.net (JK)]

Hi folks,

I used to use a Linksys WAP-11 802.11b wireless AP
for my wifi net.  It was just an access-point; that is, it
was a bridge, not a router.  So my Linux firewall could see
the wifi clients directly, assign them IP addresses, do
throttling based on MAC addresses, and (very important to
me) selectively forward traffic and do SNAT/DNAT between
the wifi clients and my wired LAN.

I recently bought a Netgear WGT624 802.11g router, mainly to
get WPA support.  However, it seems only to be able to be
a NATting router, which means my firewall only sees one
IP, and I can't do all the stuff I want to do.

So the question is, does anyone know of a widely-available
802.11g device that can be used strictly as an access point
or bridge? (But still supports WPA.)

Thanks,

-- JK
