No, there is not.

The firmware as it is right now only works for Atheros, because of the
use of the VAPs.

Sense B.A.T.M.A.N. can run in any radio (Atheros, Broadcom, Zydas,
Ralink, etc.), our firmware could be adapted to run in such devices.
But it will do it without its current functionalities, it would only
be able to use the adhoc interface to form the mesh. You could
replace, one or the two APs, with other devices.

The use of Atheros and it VAPs is in big part a cost issue, you reduce
the purchase of 1 or 2 devices at the cost of some performance lost.

Right now we don't have any WRT54GL to do and test the adaptation need
it. It should not be to hard to accomplish.
