WRT54GL it's exactly the same as the v4 version of the WRT54G routers, thus it's using Linux and can use the 3rd party firmwares and has far more memory and firmware space.

WRT54GS has speedbooster on it but only of use if you have Linksys speedbooster wireless cards

Personally i have a WRT54GS (Version 1 i think) it works fine, never had any issues and i run the DD-WRT firmware on it as i use it to host a NAS drive which i can then VPN to.

If you run third party firmware you can increase the signal power and therefore increase the range
