ASUS WL-330N3G

WARNING: newest version of this device does not allow to be flashed with Meteobridge firmware. You can't tell from the outside if a specific WL-330N3G router is part of this new, blocking production batch or an older version that can be updated fine. Therefore, it is no longer recommended to buy this hardware, when you want to flash it to become a Meteobridge. We will continue to support successfully flashed "old" versions.

Wl-wr703n.png
This tiny router from ASUS has similar specs like the ones from TP-Link. Flashing the unit is a bit more complicated (cannot be done via web interface, needs TFTP in a prepared LAN) but it can handle USB 1.x and USB 2.0 devices without need for an additional USB hub. Please do not confuse this router with its predecessor WL-330N, which is not suitable for Meteobridge.
