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.
