I've got a 3COM access point (3CRWE454G72 - OfficeConnect Wireless 11g 
Access Point)connected to an IPCop router. Not quite what you're looking 
for, but the 3COM access point has been great. Easy to setup and 
configure, good support for WAP and works well with the network (running 
as a interconnect onto it's own network card via the Blue network).

It's connected up with a 3COM XJack 108MBps card on the laptop. I 
couldn't get it to work with the Atheros chipset linux drivers (issue 
with the revision of the chipset), but NDISWrapper works great. Well 
worth looking at the 3COM version.
