If you are running *wrt on them, then you have the full power of the linux

Nice inappropriate conflation. "low end commodity AP" --- think bottom or
even middle of the line Netgear or Linksys --- these come with
VxWorks-based firmware and no way to adjust the tiny NAT tables except by
reflashing with *wrt (which for these units is often a challenge because
they only accept firmware with the right config strings or checksums in
them, and if you get it wrong you may have a brick on your hands).
I thought the context was when using a *wrt build on one of these routers.
some of these devices are far more brick-resistant than others. The netgear ones
in particular tend to have a very bullet-proof flashing process. (the wndr3700
and similar)
