Hi Karl, Regarding the dual band routers supported by OpenWRT this summer I bought a TP-LINK TL-WDR3600 for personal use and I'm quite happy with it.
It's a Gigabit Ethernet + dual band wireless router. Supports Dual-Stream (2x2) on the 2.4 Ghz Band using an Atheros AR9340 2.4GHz 802.11bgn radio and Dual-Stream (2x2) on the 5 Ghz Band using an Atheros AR9340 2.4GHz 802.11bgn radio. It also has two USB ports so you can add extra USB devices if necessary. You can find more info here: http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-wdr3600 Amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-TL-WDR3600-Wireless-Gigabit-300Mbps/dp/B008RV51EE Cheers, jlo On Wed, Oct 2, 2013 at 5:10 PM, Karl Garcia <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Javier, > > I have found a number of dual band routers which have DD-WRT support, but > not OpenWrt.
