Hi

I've done some google searching but haven't really found anything that seems to be what I need. First I should add it's been awhile since I have run Linux but that's changing

What I'm after doing is setting up a Linux box as a wireless router. I will be running the Suse distro if I can (preferred distro)and I want it to run as a normal Linux box, but also to work as a wireless access point for the rest of my network.

I am after long range which would be a pricey wireless router and thought this would be fun to do. I would like to get roughly 300-400m in the open that should give me more then enough coverage also for when I am closer but say inside next doors home.

So this is what I would like for a end result... My current router to connect to the Linux box and act as a 2nd router/firewall, the Linux box to have a wireless antenna and allow other computers to connect to the Linux box and be able to browse the net etc etc. I'm well ware I still require a wireless antenna just wanted to start a little research before I purchase it.

Thanks in advanced for you help
