A possible use for the WRT54G is to create a standalone APRS digipeater and Internet Gateway. When combined with the wireless bridging capability that already exists in the WRT54G, this would provide a way to deploy more, cheaper APRS digis while eliminating the radio traffic between the digi and a separate internet gateway.

In addition, the same hardware could be used for a Telpac bridge for use with local VHF/UHF Winlink installations.
