"Though the open source FreeBSD operating system has changed in many aspects over the last 16 years of its life, one item that has remained relatively static is its underlying network routing architecture. No more: It's getting an overhaul with the upcoming FreeBSD 8.0 release. FreeBSD 8.0, due out next month, will include a new routing architecture that takes advantage of parallel processing capabilities. According to its developers, the update will provide FreeBSD 8.0 with a faster more advanced routing architecture than the legacy architecture."

>No, the situation is broadly similar across all BSDs.
Just no and I can proof it as every hardcore FreeBSD user. Some people even call me sometimes "BSD zealot" on osnews ;-) But well, I do know the strengths of other operating systems too or those among the BSDs. That's the difference to an operating system zealot. BSD has got different strengths, WLan isn't one of it and especially none of FreeBSD.
