All the LinkSys routers that I've ever had support this. Older models where essentially Linux on a chip mini-computers - and because of that the Firmware was open source. There are a lot of alternative firmwares with improved capabilities. I use the Talisman firmware by Sveasoft (you need to pay a small support fee for it, but it's worth it). It works on many brands (Linksys, Netgear, Buffalo, etc) and adds TONS of features (I initially needed it for static DHCP support but now also use the enhanced wireless features and several others). The first few sticky messages of the online support forum has most of the information: http://www.sveasoft.com/modules/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=8 I've not had any problems in the several years I've used it.
