i just set up a netgear MR814 today for a customer that worked great right out of the box. i think it cost me $99 w/ a $30 MIR. dhcp server, NAT, good port forwarding capabilities, nice browser based config, 128 bit wep, mac address ACL, etc. i think the range leaves a bit to be desired, but the antenna is detachable, which means it can probably be replaced easily enough. i was pretty happy with it, especially for the price.
