After a hardware upgrade I ended up with a spare mini pc. Noticed these two icons and thought I might be able to use it as a WiFi access point with VLANs using OPNsense.

Is that possible? If so, what do I even need to buy to plug into there?

I don’t need it to do any fancy dhcp, dns or firewall stuff, I just need a WiFi access point with support for VLANs.

    I’d probably have to buy something before it supports WiFi. It’s built to run pfsense (has 4 ethernet ports) so I imagine that it would run just fine if I got it a good antenna, but who knows.

      You should probably open it up and see if there’s even a Wi-Fi radio in there it’s probably not there because when they’re installed those plugs are removed and the screw terminals for the antenna are in their place
