Go look at
http://www.dd-wrt.com I recently flashed my v5 WRT54G and the
ddwrt firmware offers an amazing array of new features including QoS which
you're seeking. Until I found this, I thought upgrading the firmware in my
v5 WRT54G router was not a possibility because it wasn't Linux based and
because of the limited RAM (8Meg) in the unit. I needed to use the router
as a wireless bridge and could not do so with the stock Linksys firmware.
After flashing the proper firmware (mirco generic ddwrt), it's working fine
as a wireless bridge connecting my DirecTV HR20 and XBox to my home network.
