Any news/thoughts as to the next recommended device? > 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.
