releases other than 1.2b5-1.2b7 support several wireless NICs, mostly based
on the Cisco, Lucent/Agere/Orinoco/Proxim, Symbol and Intersil 802.11b 
chipset(s).

1.2b5-1.2b7 support some (but not all) Atheros chipsets as well.

Your biggest problems running m0n0wall on a wrt54g is getting a FreeBSD 
port to MIPS, and
deciding how to store the configuration xml file.

Those aren't trival, btw.
