I think the factory firmware on those devices is so limited there is
really no reason to ever switch back. Right now I have dd-wrt running on
mine. I have been toying with the idea of trying this one called tomato.

It should be able to do the wireless bridging just fine. It even has a
nice little flash tutorial on how to set it up.
