[wsfii-discuss] What wifi router to use

[Breno Jacinto]

Hello Steve,

    I just bought a model like that, but I was aware that it supports
exclusively 802.11n. It seems that the current MP version is only b/g and
thus would not be inter-operable with it, correct?

    I also bought this model (WR710N) -
http://www.volumerates.com/product/tp-link-wr710n-mini-pocketable-11n-150-mbps-wireless-broadband-router-with-dual-lan-connectors-101283,
since it supports 802.11b/g/n and (possiblity?) is flash-able to run
openwrt / BATMAN?

    I cant wait to put my hands on them :)

best regards,
