That buffalo model has a builtin integrated broadcom wireless chipset.
At the minimum you want mini-pci
There are some other buffalo models that have mini-pci including one
that
has two !
WZR-AG300
<BLOCKED::http://www.buffalotech.com/products/wireless/wireless-n-nfinit
i-dual-band>
Sadly not supported yet on openwrt , but the WZR-RS-G54
<http://www.buffalotech.com/products/product-detail.php?productid=88&cat
egoryid=6>
looks nice with 64Mb mem

Ah yes, that's the next thing I was considering. Still not as cheap as
the ASUS units have been though :(

Oops - I sent this to just the OP, didn't reply to all:
"R100s are definitely EOL, have been for a long while now.
I got a 550gE and it's good, but they appear to also be EOL now.
So in conclusion, I don't know but I'd like to ;)"
The 550GEs don't have USB ports. Though, on the board you can
solder onto the 'pins' to get USB, but under the flap there's nothing.
And yep, I missed the hot sale for $50! SO SAD!

the ASUS WL-550GE is just like the r100 i'm told; i've flashed
one of these myself and it does the job. looks like you missed the 'hot'
sale at msy, they were selling for $50!!!
anyway, i also run a wl-500gp (like the r100 but with more
ram/cpu and usb ports) and i've heard the linksys wrt54gl is as good as
the wrts come.

though not the link I was originally trying to find - I
bookmarked a
commercial co website in sydney that was doing wrt stuff (on
linksys
wrt54gs IIRC) - was originally looking to buy one, but lacked
funds in
the end... anyone know who it might be???
