I researched a number of routers before I settled on this one:
http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Asus_RT-N16


It's got a lot of memory ( 128MB RAM, 32MB Flash ) so you can run
asterisk and other larger applications.

It's got a good processor, 480MHz, (overclockable to 533MHz, with
instructions to hack in a fan). I have not overclocked mine.

The downside is that it is not dual-band, the chipset is dual-band, but
it does not have the 5GHz radio inside. So you are stuck using the
2.4GHz spectrum that may contend with other devices and routers. This is
not a problem for me as I'm only using 802.11G, and just got the router
to handle QOS for my Bell FIBE25, (My WRT45GL did not have the horse
power to do QOS at 25MBps).

Price is reasonable: $105 cash at Microbytes:

(be sure to call and reserve one before going to the store, as they
don't seem to have many in stock)

Enjoy,
-Curtis.
