WRT350N and WRT600N are linux based. The wifi card is broadcom. If they
allow monitor mode, you will have to check by the model of chipset. These
models support 3rd party software like dd-wrt, openwrt, sveasoft. Right now
sveasoft web site was defaced.

more details about the chipsets of each model you can found here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WRT350N and you can find there many other
models.

They support ssh according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DD-WRT.

Regarding wireshark it really depends on the memory that the router has.
These models have 32mb ram and 8mb flash memory. Probably tethereal will
work since some models of wrt54g manage to work with snort (on 16mb ram
router).

Stick with the broadcom cards and stay away from the ralink chipsets.

will be happy to hear what you selected.
