used as wap

Pros: Cheap, Great signal and distance, reliable, removable antenna, 9v, supports wpa2 aes, Flash's to DD-WRT in under 5 min using asus recovery tool.
Cons: none, I guess only uses dd-wrt micro but for the price that is expected.
Overall Review: I flashed these to DD-Wrt then set them up so that they were used as WAP's(wireless acess points). For the price these are much cheaper than most other WAPs, and they have a built in switch. Did not use DHCP, NAT, or routing cabablities of these boxes. I used 10 of these to cover over 150,000 square feet of warehouse space with wifi. Bought $30 9v POE (Power Over Ethernet) adapters (from an online auction site) for these so I did not have to run power to the ceiling of the warehouse. At $60 for the unit and power adapters these were still about $40 cheaper than buying a WAP with POE built in, and DD-WRT provides more features, and has a built in switch. Most people say you have to downgrade the firmware, but if you put he box in recovery mode and use the asus recovery tool you can flash this thing in minutes, which is good because I had to do it to 10 of these.
