If you don't need N and would like to save some $$$ I would look at picking up a pair of the Buffalo WHR-HP-G54's and load DD-WRT on at least 1 of them to run it in wireless bridge mode. You could also do one of the ASUS WL-520gU's also, which is a bit cheaper yet than the Buffalo. Like I said not sure if you need N but this would be a more affordable option for G, not sure what you're looking to stream but G should handle most SD video sources.

Well, I'd like to separate my normal wireless from my multimedia network. Wireless N will give me the ability to stream HD content without saturating that network. Plus I'll be able to lock down that additional network and not have to worry security so much.
