1 I'm looking for a device which I intend to use as a wireless router with
2 atleast following: 1xusb, 2xethernet, 2xmini-pci(e).

4 I found this :
5 http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=MPC8377EWLAN
6 A bit pricey for what you get - but quite reasonable - would likely be
7 cheaper if it was for mass market - think they maybe sell 100 a year if
8 that.

10 I have looked also at:
11
12 - routerboard : mikrotik doesn't really want to help people to load
13 other OS on it - and it's a mission from what i've seen to do it
14 - alix : a bit slow - and I don't really like the amd geode (seems
15 like its not really made for router applications)
16 - routerstation pro : probably best option price wise - but a bit more
17 power would be nice - and board layout is bit awkward.
18
19 Any other ideas ?
