Is a NetBSD (or any BSD supporting pf) port plausible for the linksys 
wrt54g?  I understand that the wireless driver is a binary and not 
open/available, but a very rudimentary port for simple routing and 
pf/nat/altq (IE no wireless) would be very useful to some (myself 
included).  I'm a weak programmer but relatively technical so I'd 
really like a straight answer as to if a port is possible (I'd be 
willing to offer a small bounty for the relatively simple features I 
require, *No Wireless*).
I'm in need of an inexpensive QoS/NAT box (less than the soekris).  
I've been using the sveasoft builds for the wrt54g but would much 
rather use a bsd with pf support.

Thanks in advance,
