You can get the micro version of DD-WRT to work w/ the cheaper WRT-54GS found at Wally World for just at $50. The WRT-54GS is the one w/ 'Speedbooster' (hence 'S' in 'GS') but the same case, you should look closely though because I have found some without removable antennas on the later models that look just like the 'classic' 54G (Blue/Black unit), this was the case w/ the last one I bought right about a year ago. I have flashed 54GS (w/ dd-wrt) without any issues though, there are good instructions at the DD-WRT site. The 54-GS was not always supported, but I found that it works well now if you can deal with the Micro version, it still has the web based GUI but is lacking features for space constrictions.

I have a Linksys wireless router, WRT54GL that has detachable antennas.
It even runs on Linux.  I got it at MicroCenter for $69.
