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.
