Actually I have 4 nics in that machine , the on board and three intel pci , I yanked the wireless card i slipped in there yesterday in lue of your knowledge,  I set the onboard up as wan , one is reserved for dual wan once i move and another for the wireless.

Might tackle this later today , have a few tasks to get done before hand.

It's gonna get wild , I have to reconfigure the two cisco 2900's now , I know some ios but I'm not super fluent , and from what I understand the 2900's don't support voice vlans , I'll have to find a way to setup the sip phone on freeswitch. But thats a bit into the distance.

thanks, rick

I ran the freeswitch package on PFsense for 2 years. Just recently put together a dedicated freeswitch server for the house & various other locations. I run 10 extensions out of it 3 of which are in the house.

Good luck and Godspeed I hate the 2900's.

Thanks for the input. In the case of creating the vlan , would it be best to put the wireless on opt1 ~ vlan  or use the lan and create a vlan on this. I would think creating a vlan on opt1 would be better , any thoughts ? As opt1 interface is not in use right now.

If you happen to have a triple nic setup and opt1 is available that's the traditional spot to put it, and where I would put it if you don't have a need for another DMZ type zone, just remember to setup your firewall rules after you plug it in and wonder why you can't get any traffic from opt1 to any other interface :)

I made the move from smoothwall to m0n0wall a couple weeks ago. It's great, but I needed more along the lines of dual wan and deeper configurability between vlans and vpn across multiple local and remote domains and utilizing a dial up network for INN server I'm experimenting on.


So I went to pfsense , I should have done this a while ago , who else is running pfsense that can speak on it's behalf of an internal wireless interface Vs. external wireless router turned into a subnet of it's own. The idea is to find out which is more stable , the internal interface or the external device implemented on a vlan.

Create a vlan and use a device, PfSense is tits but I'm not a fan of it's wireless support been running it for 3 years now and have several boxes at businesses I support. on a dual core atom box it handles 100/100 fiber with no issue including open vpn connections tons of port forwarding/handling manual outbound nat etc.

Great stuff.

:-)  My cat Luci was a shelter kitten. I wanted to adopt an adult cat as they're much harder to place but the shelter's around are thankfully very blessed and had only one or two adult cats each, none of which were very friendly (they've become shelter mascots, mostly, while crabby to visitors they love staff and thankfully there's enough space they'll stay there a long time) so I picked out a kitten from the dozens there. She was a runt of  the litter, mixed breed obviously, longer back legs than front, and extremely people shy... however, besides a little biting issue we're working through she's turned into a wonderful house mate as she ages..

with about a second round trip time for packets, VOIP is going to be hit or miss, the only thing they can do is time delay things properly so you don't chop up.. you'll never be able to get rid of the lag.. Good luck, i'm guessing it's not going to be a happy ending trying to use VOIP over sat if you're used to regular landline connectivity.
