Hi,
we have a supported hardware list here: [piratebox.cc]

I can recommend the WR1043ND BUT take care, that you geta version 1 via ebay... Version 2 is not officially supported.
Another device is the WR842ND , that has like the WR1043ND external exchangeable antennas.

But take care, when you buy antennas with alot +dBi , some may cause issues during bootup or during runtime. A friend of mine is using a high-range antenna that pulls that much power from the board, that the USB port can't be initiated correctly anymore. (Not talking about law issues).
Ah, and remember:
It is not only being seen, but your communication partner has to send strong enough for hearing him.

regards Matthias
