OpenWRT is a Linux distro that you can run on your access point.  You can 
think of it as "firmware" that you can add and remove programs from.

There's plenty of info on their website:

http://openwrt.org/

The OpenWRT wiki has an "about" section which describes why it was created 
here:

Hope that helps!
