		<description>Hi Gerd,

Understood; for such a small amount of users you shouldn&#039;t need a separate RADIUS server (although I will point out that FreeRADIUS is a very small and simple RADIUS server to use and is of course free open source software). If you are looking for enterprise WLAN equipment (with the corresponding hefty price tag), I know that Motorola&#039;s Symbol division makes some nice WLAN switches (RFS 7000/5500) which have a built in mini-RADIUS server. With that particular switch, you can also configure the internal RADIUS server to proxy to an external server in case you outgrow the capabilities of the internal server. I&#039;m pretty sure Cisco has such a device as well, but I don&#039;t have any personal experience with it.

From an open source perspective, the Linksys WRT-54GL line of WLAN routers all have a Linux kernel on them which means you can install an open source WLAN firmware such as Tomato or DDWRT. You could then build a mini-version of FreeRADIUS to run directly on the device.</description>

		<description>Hello,

For me a integrated Radius seems the ideal solution. The reason is: -i only need 30 Account -i need a authentification feature -i dont want to pay extra money to a Radius Service Provider nor do i want administrate a Radius by myself. My problem is that i can not get an overview or find really integrated wlan routers/ap&#039;s. At a nearer look most just have Radius support. Can you recommend or point me to some real integrated Radius WLA N Routers?</description>
