I just took a look at the kernel binary inside their firmware image.
It's a Ralink MIPS based device running 2.6.21. Unfortunately there
doesn't seem to be a source code download link, and the binary looks
like it may be problematic wrt. license issues as well: the proprietary
Ralink wifi driver seems to be statically linked into the kernel binary.
