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.
