WRT54 setup script

Im extremely new to setting up wireless routers but lately I have
found myself setting up quite a few WRT54GSs in client mode for myself
and friends. While it is not particlarly difficult to do I find myself
making a lot of mistakes that can be a real pain to find. I am using
DD WRT v 24 software and I would like to know if there is a way I can
download the settings from a router that is already set up to a disk
and then install them to another router. I was considering writing a
script to do this. My guess is that the script would just be a string
of statements assigning values to various variables. The trouble is I
have no idea about corelating values assigned on the GUI with variable
names used in the software.

I am also sure that once I find a simple and easy way to do this I
will never have to do it again.

Thanks, I figured there may be something built in. I still have a lot
to learn about the capabilities of DD-WRT. Still I would like to learn
to set values by way of the command line.
