Another vote for the venerable Linksys WRT3GL, as it readily supports DD-WRT aftermarket firmware.

What kind of external antennas are we talking about here? Any cable preference? LMR-400?

Might find this interesting. Ez-12

need to connect external "cantenna" to laptops and/or dwsktops w/o external antenna ports. It seems that this would require a wireless router with external antenna port.
