So does anyone know of a router with WISP mode that has external antennas? The Edimax 7416APn is great but only works as a repeater (no WISP mode) and I've found that it will not "pass through" data properly when you have to log in/sign up to a hotel page.
The Tenda W150M+ has a detachable external antenna. I am very happy with its W150M sibling that does not have an external antenna and supports WISP
This ebay listing says it is dual-band but it is single band only.

Haven't used it personally but there is also the Sapido RB-1602 where the manual shows that it can use a wireless WAN but does not specifically use the WISP term
