Last I checked:
- this works fine if the WRT54GL's wifi card is in "master" mode
  (i.e. it is the access point).
- OTOH it does not work if the wifi card is a client connecting to some
  existing network.
Also the first case is well supported under OpenWRT, so I suspect you're
in the second case situation.
All hope is not lost, since a few years have passed since last time
I checked.

seems to say that it can now be made to work using some ebtables magic.
