I have WRT54GS at home, which runs almost final (pre7) version of Sveasoft's Alchemy firmware. It is good, except I have some problems with downloading over wireless sometimes and think this is because of it...
Another intent of installing custom firmware (except extended logging and some nice software playground) was to use FWBuilder to manage firewall rules. Well, never got around to do it, but still thinking of it.

Note to self: try out DD-WRT - heard a lot of good things about it and is in active development now...

Scott Hanselman talking about it here, too:
ComputerZen.com - Scott Hanselman - More on Alternate Linksys Firmware

Good stuff about DD-WRT:
* Includes XBox Live, BitTorrent and Skype in its QoS services priority list.
* UPnP Forwarding admin screen lets you see what UPnP devices have punched holes through your firewall.
* WRT radius authentication (that I haven't figured out how to work yet)
* Support for updating my DynDNS.org account.
* Support for Chilispot if I ever choose to charge my neighbors for using my wireless HotSpot.
* DHCPd support for assigning IP addresses based on MAC addresses (centrally administered static IPs, very important, and very useful)
* PPTP VPN Server using MS-CHAP means no-install VPN from Hotel Rooms

He also mentions FON project, which was recently mentioned together with Skype in some news ;)
