Before I start, I don't want to use any 3rd party firmware here (so no DD-WRT unless it's factory installed) as support / warranty is important.
Anyway, I'm after a cheap router that will do local DNS and has wifi. It's going to be used on exhibition stands and suchlike to demo an iPhone app. The idea is we'll resolve to the local address when people are in wifi range, and to an external address (via a 3G connection) when they wander off. We have a 3G router already, so that's not a problem. In fact, we don't even need this box to do any routing really, if there was a box that provided DHCP, DNS and a wifi access point without anything else that would be perfect, but I doubt there is.
