Just received my TL-WR703N this is awesome for the price don't know if I will us it or PI to run my k16's.

A few of my saved links as to why this unit is so interesting. I'm sure I also saw that someone completely reversed the PCB as well, but can't find it now.

One of my ideas that I hope to explore later: use it as QuadCopter engine so that via Wifi and USB camera, you can control flight with your Android tablet. Even if it meant removing the AR9331 and implementing a dedicated PCB controller with Gyros etc.

But that's a whole 'nother topic I don't have time for right now.

I know this is sorta OT, but I read reports that installing openWRT on WR703N units with firmware later than I think v1.6 would brick them. Does anyone know if this is true? I've got a WR703N and a Pi in my cart on amazon, but I'm waiting to pull the trigger.

The QuadCopter project sounds awesome, btw.
