Draft-N not required, but if the price is right.. :) Linksys WRT45G/GS/GL if you can still get them and flash it with OpenWRT (http://www.openwrt.org/) - you then have a hugely flexible router that you can ssh to and add all sorts of functionality from an OpenVPN Server to an Asterisk PBX as well as WPA/WPA2-encrypted WiFi, routing and a 4 port switch. A WRT54* (or anything else that can run OpenWRT) is a wise investment imho, I've currently got an old WRT54G acting as a wireless bridge between my main ADSL router by my front-door and my servers in my garage.
