Sure. Except:

I'm looking for recommendations. I want reliability and works-with-linux
So far, the choices are:
Linksys WAG54G
Dynalink RTA770W
Dynalink Z660-HW
Netgear DG834G
They are all about the same price.

I can't see any problems with the wwl side, unless the browser-driven
interface requires IE.
From my experience, I'm happy with D-Link kit, especially the AirPlus
Extreme G series, which 'really does' manage 108Mbit, whether the fact
that I'm in a homogeneous (?sp) network makes any difference,
We've a Dynalink RTA770W which works fine linux and windows. The browser
interface works fine in ffx and I've had no problems connecting with
either linux or windows.
At 54Mb I get about 2.9MBs through a couple of walls.

I can recommend the Linksys WAG54G, I have installed quite a few of these.
Linksys also is involved with Open Source, their WRT54G runs Linux and
there are some great custom firmwares out there for this unit.
