Or, dd-wrt for x86 installed on an old 400mhz x86 box with a couple of nics 
and an atheros based wireless card will blow all the rest of them into 
drydock for a refurbishing.  Any old x86 box, k6 or better, 32 megs of dram 
and a $3 cf adaptor on the end of an ide cable, no hard drive or floppy, runs 
headless.  Download the image, dd it to a cf card, plug the cf card into the 
adapter and power it up.  Configures from a web page at (resetable) 
192.168.1.1 with any browser.   Whats not to like?

There are some versions of that which will fit in the WRT54G, but some 
services will be stripped due to a lack of resources in some versions of the 
WRT54G.  The best was the WRT54G-L, but those are under armed guard paid for 
by whoever was lucky enough to find one.
