Peter, Nice find. Looks like support has landed in Trunk (which will become the next stable release in the future) https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-wr810n The USB port does support data. http://www.tp-link.com/en/products/details/TL-WR810N.html#overview And NewEgg has it on special for $25 dollars at the moment. http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833704290CVF ... and ordered one. Really, can't wait till trickle down brings 5Ghz to devices like these. I personally want to abandon the 2.4Ghz spectrum due to over crowding. There are only 4 AP's in the 5Ghz bands near my apartment, and there is no competition because of how wide the spectrum is. On 08/13/2016 12:57 AM, Peter Renzland via talk wrote:
Depending on your intended use, there is also this:

It has a built-in power supply, 2 ethernet ports, and a USB port.
It can operate in several modes:
1. Router 2. Hotspot 3. Range Extender 4. Client 5. Access Point
Right now it is acting as a wireless client bridge (no NAT) for the MPB and a Grandstream VOIP ATA, while powering a USB fan.
I got it mainly to run the VOIP phone off WiFi.
