Alternative to consider would be pfsense (based on FreeBsd):

Works excellent for me (I have a few of them around).

pfSense is a very good router, firewall, but its wireless support is fairly limited. I use pfsense as my home firewall/router, but use Ubiquiti UniFi AP's for my wireless.. this has the added advantage of letting me position the WAP's (wireless access points) seperately for the best radio distribution (ceiling mount), while the router is on a table in a corner along with my cable modem and file server box where radio propagation wouldn't be very good.
