I'm looking for a small WiFi router that I could use to create my own wireless network when I travel.

I'm also interested in a router that has very good signal/antenna and that is easy to take with you.

Please do not recommend products just because you can find them on the net, I'm interested about personal experience. Also it's good to know if you can install open-source firmware on it.

Selection criteria:

size
signal quality
price

Required: to support both 110V/220V power supply, best if embedded or retractable cord.
