[ale] Linksys WRT54g alternate firmware

[Christopher Bergeron]

Titus, I just looked at Sveasoft recently.  I don't know much about the 
others, but I think that the Sveasoft version has more 3rd party 
support.  I actually stumbled across it while I was researching 
something completely different.  It looks very cool...


Best regards,
Chris Bergeron
