Re: [leaf-wisp] MikroTik RouterBoard 532

Thanks for pointing me to WRAP, looks like exactly what I'm looking 
for...Except I might want to support a couple VPN tunnels eventually, 
would it be powerful enough to support VPN?

I'm curios why you would recommend a third party proprietary OS for my 
application? I.E. STAR-OS over LEAF? Also, I've noticed that the Wisp 
branch of LEAF hasn't released any files on Sourceforge since version 
2624 in 2003, is the branch still being maintained? Or are other 
branches of LEAF more active that I should be looking at?

Thanks,
