We have used the following models: TP-Link MR-3020, TP-Link TP-WR703n and TP-WR842nd.
Open-WRT have a guide for each supported device that tells how to best flash your specific device with Open-WRT. [(Article on flashing)](http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/generic.flashing)
After flashing proceed through the first login as described [(here)](http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/firstlogin)
You are going to need to have an internet connection to your router, the easiest thing is to hook it up to the router. Alternatively if you use OSX you can enable internet sharing (make sure to set your OSX machine as the gateway and DNS server for your router in /etc/config/network)

### System configuration
To use your router for Meshenger you're going to need to run the whole filesystem from a USB-Drive.
Make sure that said USB-Drive is formatted as such:
- one ext4 partition
- one linux-swap partition (32mb seems to be sufficient so far)
