Does anyone have recommendations for a modern wifi-router that is compatible with OpenWRT or ddwrt?
I've had it with one particular WRT54-GL that I've been maintaining. There's a bug in the b43 driver which causes the wifi to die whenever there's high load, and the suggested workaround[1] doesn't seem to work. Furthermore, the next release of OpenWRT isn't going to work on devices with 16Mb of RAM or less, anyway.
Basically, I'm after some sort of wifi router with at least four ethernet ports + one uplink port, that is well supported by OpenWRT, doesn't use b43 for its wifi interface, 64Mb RAM, preferably a lot of flash and is readily available in Australia.
Linksys E3200 (dual band) may meet your need - I can't tell at first glance if it uses the b43 variant though. They were going for around the $100 mark when I got mine. Haven't tried OpenWrt on it yet, but would be tempted if there were enough hours in the day.
