I'm finding the WNDR3700v1 or WNDR3800 increasingly hard to find at
"reasonable" priced. Any news/thoughts as to the next recommended device?

Would you consider refurbished equipment?  I just picked up 2 refurbished WNDR3800s from Newegg for about $65 each.

I have before. The second refurb I bought was a dud and required a return
so I'm a little shy of refurbs. (it had a rattle, likely damaged in
shipping.)

Bump.

I am also interested hearing about anyone's successes running full featured versions of OpenWrt/CeroWrt with routers other than WNDR3700/3800.

Thanks,
Joey

Actually, I think it is the WNDR3700v2 you want, not a v1.

These have always come through as v2's in our experience. (WNDR37AV).  But
they seem to be getting scarcer too.

The TP-LINK TL-WDR4300[1] is working well for me; the onboard flash is small 
but it has two USB ports (making it trivial to use OpenWRT's extroot 
support). Fully Atheros-based, so open drivers all the way down.

It's dual-radio to boot.

Might be more than you need, though, since the TL-WDR4300 is 300Mbps in the 
2.4GHz band and 450 in the 5GHz. The TL-WDR3600[2] is a more direct analogue 
to the WNDR3800 (300 in both), but I have no personal experience with it.

Newegg has the 3600 new[3] at the same price as the WNDR3800 refurbished[4] 
(about $65 US), and every once in a while the price dips down at one seller 
or another.
