The heart of the FreedomTower is a nettop computer running pfsense, a variant of openbsd, that makes it easy to do network administration. We used the Lenovo Q150 in our build, but ran into problems when we discovered that the south bridge of the Q150's chipset is not supported by openBSD. You may wish to proceed as we have, by working around the problem using USB to Ethernet adapters, or you may wish to explore alternative nettop hardware. If you do the latter, please let us know how it goes.

Hook up your nettop to a monitor and keyboard. You will need a live image of pfsense. You should use the stable release of version 2. Before you proceed, connect the box to at any WAN connections, and to the network switch. Install pfsense on the box, configuring it to accept an address via DHCP on all WAN connections, and to serve addresses via DHCP to the LAN.

Once this is done, you'll want to reconfigure the LAN settings to expand the subnet. We recommend using 192.168.10.0 through 192.168.254.254. Then configure DHCP to hand out that range of addresses. '' '''NOTE:''' Wouldn't this be the FNF coordinated subnet? ''

The next step is to set up load balancing against the WAN connections. This is done by creating a gateway group, and making a firewall rule to route all lan traffic to that gateway.
