I've used the WRT54G WRT54GS and now the ASUS WL-500 deluxe. The latter is easier to hack, has double the memory(32M), 2 USB ports, supported by OpenWRT and is $100 mailorder.

The point is that there is are many alternatives to the LinkSys, some better. Adding the confusion of labeling confusion it is easier to suggest one of the alterntives to prospective hackers.

In our case we use the Linksys to run 1-wire sensors and monitoring remotely. (See owfs.sf.net)

The model I talked about is the "ASUS WL-500G Deluxe" and the complete list of Linksys WRT54G alternatives can be found at:
