does anyone have a recommendation for a solid FreeBSD-based 802.11b/g/n AP package for MIPS-based APs and CPEs?

Adrian, the reason for my original post (seeking to return to the BSD
environs) is that we are seeing gross quantities of stuck beacons in
dmesg on the Ubiquiti M series and have recently noted perps diagnosed
by the UBTik (a MikroTik in a housing form fit and function compatible
with the Rocket M2) trying to associate with _WDS requested_ resulting
in latencies of 10x-20x normal latency.  We don't run WDS on our 2.4
GHz APs.  We only run WDS on Ubiquiti M5 series in PTP because that's
the way they produce a transparent Layer 2 bridge.

Is the amount of time spent processing such a request, combined with
logging and a busy channel, perhaps enough to effectively cause a
denial of service?

kind regards/ldv

p.s.:

I refer implicitly to Sam Leffler's comments last year about the
likely sources of stuck beacons.
