Thanks for all the replies. The home router options you suggested would indeed be perfect however in my case the POE support is a must, even if it is passive POE. I know that I can use a POE splitter to power the router but this is not an option to me.
Also it is not quite clear to me if the home routers have an ethernet switch with 5 ports configured as 1 WAN and 4 LAN or if they have an ethernet port configured for WAN and a 4 port switch. The latter would be ok the former no. Indeed the RSpro would have been a perfect choice. I may have found a supplier that can assemble a custom AP based on routerboard. How is the support for this platform on OpenWRT? R. On 07/24/2013 01:31 PM, Roberto Riggio wrote: > Hi, > > I'm looking for a wireless router to be used with OpenWRT.
