Can anyone suggest a wireless router that someone can buy today that either ships with or can be flashed with OSS firmware? I've been trying to shop around for one compatible with DD-WRT or OpenWRT and been rather disheartened so far; every promising model I've found either requires you to play roulette with the specific hardware version of the router that you receive (which is never advertised on product pages), or is out of stock entirely, or costs upwards of $250 (which is tough to sell to my friends, when their ISP charges $10/mo to rent a router with much less hassle).
