802.11n Recommendations

[Matt Nelson]

I've had good and bad.  I HATE linksys when it comes to 802.11n.  I finally
got 2 trendnet accesspoints and have loved them.  I have not had to do
anything, reboot, etc since setting them up.  This may be to them being only
a AP, and not a router, etc.

I was able to pick them up for $30 a piece at the time.
