The Engenius ecb9500 is a good 11n AP but only has 79mW for transmit power it has high throughput at short range.

If you want longer range the 600mW 11g ecb3500 is a better all around AP with more features. Since most internet connections are less then 20Mbps 11G 54Mbps speeds are just fine.

the EAP9550 150Mbps 11n AP has a smart antenna so its range is somwhere in the middle for range.
