Consider getting a decent router and separate wireless access point. By
the time you add good modern crypto security on top of a router
(especially public key exponentiation on home networking toys), the load
may be pretty heavy for a single integrated piece of hardware.

Its possible to get a decent router (like a 3com OfficeConnect) and a
used Cisco wireless access point (like a Cisco 1121G on eBay).
Configuration of a Cisco access point might be a great learning
experience, but I can't think of a more robust set-up combination
without breaking the bank.
