I think most soho class routers normally take the NTP server info from
DHCP. You should be able to manually configure NTP on a Linksys
WRT54G* with a custom Linux firmware (e.g. Thibor / HyperWRT)  from
the command line to edit the system configration to manually set the
NTP daemon (ntpd as a client) settings.
