The WNDR3800/WNDR3700v2 is still my favourite.  I've still got a couple
Asus 500GP v1, and they're just fine if you don't need 802.11n and can
fit in the slightly more limited flash.

Both models:

  - are well supported by OpenWRT;
  - are very difficult to brick (just set up a tftp server and interrupt
    the boot sequence to reflash);
  - have a manageable built-in switch that's configurable from OpenWRT.

The WNDR3800 has 16/128 flash/RAM, the 3700v2 16/64, the Asus 8/32.

The WNDR3800/3700v2 has some other nice features, like a second gigabit
NIC that doesn't go through the internal switch (to get VLANs without
messing with the switch), support for 5GHz, and two radios usable
simultaneously (which Babel is able to use for avoiding intra-route
interference).
