The netgear dg834g runs linux and does the adsl/firewall/hub/router/wireless.
People are working on firmware mods and the supplied firmware is not compressed

You can also disable the wireless from the web interface if you want to.
You can also get a telnet shell on fix a few things the web interface wont 
let you do.  

mine cost 120 quid from tcr but i hear they are now about 80 mailorder.
