Up until a month ago I ran a set of FreeBSD based ap in my house and even long
ago at work . They were Pc engines apu ?s or Alix?s with one em/igb nic and one
ath nic in a bridge . They worked well for a long time however the need for
more robust wifi setup caused me to swap them out with cots aps from tp-link .
The major issues were the lack of WiFi features and standards that work oob on
Linux based aps .
So I always wanted to experiment with ng_bridge vs if_bridge for the same task .
But I never got around to it . Do you have any insight into using one vs the
other . Imho if_bridge is easier to setup and get working .
