We tried reprogramming ours with DD-WRT firmware as an experiment, and at the moment we have a nice pretty blue brick with the Linksys logo on it.
I find that interesting, as we had just the opposite effect. Our newer router that we bought for the event, seemed to give us problems, while our 2009 from the KOP worked just fine.

Then again that was last year, if you were using the D-Link bridges, I have yet to give it a try with those.
