Within the finite-temperature Greens-function formalism we study the equation of state of a hot interacting pion gas at zero chemical potential. Employing realistic $\pi\pi$ meson-exchange interactions we selfconsistently calculate the in-medium single-pion selfenergy and the $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitude in the quasiparticle approximation. These quantities are then used to evaluate the thermodynamic potential, $\Omega_\pi$(T), from which the state variables: pressure-, entropy- and energy-density can be derived. In contrast to earlier calculations based on the low-energy Weinberg Lagrangian we find an overall increase as compared to the free-gas results. We also consider the possibility of a dropping $\rho$-meson mass as suggested by the 'Brown-Rho Scaling' law.
