A recent article posted by Steve Scherf on bugtraq illistrates an interesting problem with the linksys WRT54GS.

From the article:
It appears that firmware version 4.50.6 for the Linksys WRT54GS (hardware version 1) wireless router allows wireless clients to connect and use the network without actually authenticating. With WPA Personal/TKIP authentication enabled, the unit allows both clients using encryption with the correct settings and key, and clients not using any encryption. It disallows clients attempting to use encryption with the wrong settings and/or key.
