I'm looking for a router that can be a router, repeater, or an access point and has gigabit ports. I've found the Asus RT-N15U, but they only seem to be outside the US and I'd prefer something here!

Almost all the major manufactures higher end devices can do this they change models so fast I can't keep up to tell you a exact model. You can always load dd-wrt firmware on a supported router and it has those options.

One note on a repeater. When you use a router to do this it must take time switching back and forth from receive the signal to retransmitting it. This tends to not work real well when you try to send a lot of data. True repeaters have 2 different dedicated radios, this is different from dual band. You must read the fine print because many try to pretend they can actually transmit and receive at the same time.
