at the end of my talk someone asked me what routers I would recomend to try this stuff on here, and I sort of dodged the question.
If you can come up with a list of routers available here (meet me later?), I can tell you what I know about each chipset. (I have evaluated dozens of these over the last year...)
In general ath9k based gear is currently best (entirely open wifi driver), with nearly every manufacturer shipping stuff based on that. I see there is a lot of ubnt here, and most of their older products are well supported by openwrt.
I have been running a TPlink TL-WDR1043ND version 1 on OpenWRT for a
couple of years or so. It's very cheap,
