Haven't come across the Carambola. It looks interesting and reasonably
priced. Main features are 2 x Eth LAN (10/100 I presume), 1 x WLAN
(802.11bgn), USB OTG, 2 x UART, SPI and I2C. It certainly could do the
job. Price 22 euro, down to 17 euro in quantities of 100.
According to openwrt site, I found that TP-Link TL-MR3020 is almost
identical to the TL-WR703N (I actually have no idea what the difference
is. maybe just the switch on the side ??) but it has a 4 pin internal

says "basically a TL-WR703N wireless router with a few extra
LEDs".

Another alternative is the RaspberryPi (1 x Eth Lan, 2 x USB, GPIO
connector with UART, SPI, I2C) at around A$36.
No case or PSU.
When I was evaluating units (all we needed was one Ethernet port)
going with TP-Link made the most sense - comes in a case, with a
PSU, and a patch cable. And still for about 20 Euros (plus tax).
Of course if you are embedding the device in something else, this
considerations do not apply.
