NTFS-3G for Mac OS X is a software project designed to bring NTFS read/write support to Mac OS X along with additional advanced features.
It is based on NTFS-3G, the leading open source NTFS driver that is ported into numerous platforms, but also includes other software projects to build a complete toolset for managing NTFS volumes.
NTFS-3G itself is included in hundreds of Linux distributions; for example Fedora, Mandriva, openSUSE and Ubuntu use NTFS-3G as the default NTFS driver. Development has been ongoing since 2006.

"Ladies and gentlemen, NTFS-3G will be updated for Lion eventually, but I cannot give you an ETA right now as I have much more urgent work."
Basically, work on commercial software is taking all the developer's time right now, so NTFS-3G has been placed on the back burner.
If you're desperate and can live without the preference pane, MacPorts has the very latest 2011.4.12 version for easy installation.

A link to the dmg file containing the installer would be much more useful, here it is for the actual version:

I'm trying to go through every cache and settings file to see if NTFS-3G tainted something but I see nothing abnormal.
I feel rather frustrated about the likely possibility I might need to reinstall OS X to get rid of whatever anomaly 2010-10-02 left behind.

Invalid node structure
Invalid B-tree node size
Volume check failed.
Error: Filesystem verify or repair failed.
What is going on here and how can I fix it??? I should note that I've already uninstalled NTFS-3G but the problem persists. I should also note that it's not a physical problem with external HD, since 2 other partitions on the disk (one in FAT32 and the other also Mac OS Extended Journaled) are fine.

Just because two things happen in sequence doesn't mean that they are related. NTFS-3G can not in any way affect what happens on your Airport Extreme, and it doesn't touch non-NTFS file systems.
It seems that you should contact Apple about file system corruption when using Airport Extreme.

The good news is that it is likely a "fairly" simple fix.
There is the free way or the "Paid" way. TechTool Pro and DiskWarrior are two very capable tools and in my opinion well worth the price to have on hand.
The other way is to use FSCK which is freely available in your Mac OS X UNIX underpinnings. However if you have never used a Terminal command this can be a bit overwhelming for some.
http://www.osxfaq.com/Tutorials/fsck/index.ws is a good resource if you wish to learn how to use these free tools in Mac OS X.
http://www.macosxhints.com is another fine community resource filled with knowledgeable people.
NOTE: IF after fixing the file structure on your Drive, you find the problem happening again, you will want to find out if it is something within your connection or use that is causing the problem or perhaps there is a "Bad Sector" on your drive, OR in a worse case scenario a sign that your disk is beginning to fail.
