These units can be made reliable when flashed with an alternative
firmware like OpenWRT (http://www.OpenWRT.org). Take a look at the
following pages :
http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/Hardware/D-Link?highlight=%28CategoryAR7Device%29
http://wiki.openwrt.org/AR7Port
I have here a WRT54GS 1.1 running OpenWRT whiterussian rc5, a DLink
DSL504T and a Netgear WGT634U waiting for Kamikaze builds.
I'd love to see a project similar to OpenWRT based on a BSD, but so far,
and it seems that FreeBSD mips port effort has stalled :
