As a server tho... been using it for 5+ years now and love it! Its the only box I feel I can dmz on my home cable connection only cause I have the ability to run a reliable firewall on it.

I have to disagree. In my opinion, you have more options in some respects. I have a WMP11 in one of my machines acting as an AP. On my laptop, my Orinoco card works great.
You might try a different card. Admittedly, some work better with Linux than others.
On a related note, I have had cards that didn't work worth crap under Windows that I've returned as well.
