Speaking of which, does anyone have a recommendation for an 802.11n access point (or router — I can just not use the router parts; I'm happy with my Tomato) that functions at 5GHz? It can be 5GHz-only as far as I'm concerned.

I live in a townhouse near a shopping center and I can regularly see a dozen WiFi networks, and I'm tired of them clobbering mine. It would be nice to have the extra speed, but I'm really more interested in the non-conflicting frequency range. But if it doesn't work well, I might as well stick with g. (And I'm not interested in dropping back to 11Mbps with a, not that I have any adapters for that anyway.)
