FWIW, I set up a WRT54G with bigpond cable and a heartbeat signal last week. It was a snap since it was a menu option in the WRT54G - apparently the version 2 model works well, earlier versions need a firmware upgrade. A nice page on the subject: http://www.ozcableguy.com/linksys1.html#wrt54g I forget where I read it, but you should be careful not to change the ping interval to zero, since apparently it goes into an infinite reboot loop ...
