I have a Buffalo Nfiniti WIRELESS-N WZR-HP-G300NH which I bought about one year ago. I also flash the router to DD-WRT firmware.
Now, since I moved to a townhouse, one router can not cover whole house. I need one more to extend the WiFi coverage.
So, I bought another Buffalo Nfiniti WIRELESS-N WZR-HP-G300NH at about $80.
This time, it is version 2. So called Buffalo Nfiniti WIRELESS-N WZR-HP-G300NH2. The main features are same, but shipped with DD-WRT firmware. The customized firmware for Buffalo.
I put the old one on the main floor, and connect it with cable modem as AP. The new router is configed as Client Bridge(routed), and in the basement.
AP, old router, connected all wireless devices. and also connect to the new router with full bandwidth.
New router wired connect PCs in the basement.


I can also setup both with WDS technology.
WDS means Wireless Distribution System.

Extend coverage of your wireless network by interconnecting multiple access points.

It is easy to setup, but has only half bandwidth can be used for the second AP.
More information here for WDS.
