A Router that can have external antennas attached?

You best bet is to look at the various tp-link routers. Most you can remove the antenna and many you can load the dd-wrt on. This is also true for ASUS but those get kind of expensive.
Replacing antenna is not as simple a things as it used to be. It of course is just a matter of screwing a different one on but now with MIMO where the spacing and size of the antenna is critical you may get more overall transmission but you may lose the ability of the router to transmit overlapping signals. Before you could replace one of the antenna with a directional and leave the other omni and you could increase a remote PC signal level without hurting the local PC. Doing that now I suspect will mean you cap your speed at 150m.
