Hi Csmv,
I have both TP-Link TL-WDR3600 and TP-Link TL-WDR4300 and they work
pretty well. Since it's to be used in a mesh network I would just go for
the WDR3600 as the specifications inside are exactlly the same with
exception of the thrid antenna which you don't really need. You can
actually (provided that works as expected, differently from 1043ND which
doesn't), specify one antenna exclusively for 2.4Ghz and another for
5Ghz using two different types like directional and omni.
Regards,
Fernando

Hello fellow nodes :)
As i am looking to have a standard dual band router for my layer2 mesh i
find myself with too many choices and not knowing for sure all theirs
prons and cons and based on your knowledge, experience and what you are
using i would like some feedback and or advice in regards to a good
choice based on a few requirements.
Minimal requirements:
Cpu: Above 200mhz
Ram: 32 mb
Flash: 8 mb. More is really appreciated as we know
Openwrt support: Attitude adjustment (12.09.*)
Chip: ar71xx
Wireless Standard: a/g/n
Detachable antennas: preferably & only need 2
Optional features:
usb: either native or mod (don't care about it's support)
Wireless Standard: c
Serial port: Optional but preferred over jtag
Jtag: if serial exists, i do not care
Led support: Don't care at all.
*dsl support: Don't care
I have been looking into some brands and models such as:
TP-Link TL-WDR3600
TP-Link TL-WDR4300
TP-Link TL-WR2543ND
Buffalo WZR-HP-AG300H
D-Link DIR-825
Netgear WNDR3700 and WNDR37AV (and WNDR3800)
So far i am inclined to get TP-Link TL-WDR3600 but also would like to
know of any known issues with it.
Finally and always relevant; THE PRICE.
Additionally for those in Europe; i am looking for stores that may be
selling these routers at an affordable or cheaper price and if possible
any store that you may recommend is really appreciated.
