Oops I sent my last message before I could finish composing it.

If you haven't heard about the alternate firmwares for Linksys (and
other) routers, check out www.dd-wrt.com I use that on mine and it
shows on the status page all the wireless clients and their signal
strength. It also has other information, like bandwidth graphs:

might also be able to get this data out of the router (with the
alternate firmware) using SNMP.

There are other alternate firmwares such as Tomato, OpenWRT, etc
