I've been using one at home for maybe years. It mostly works, but
my experience with it hasn't been great. For whatever reasons the rate
of packet loss increased steadily over time. I've since re-purposed an
old Netgear WNDR 3800 as a bridged AP, and I'm much happier with it.
805.11n, full power management, and no dropped connections ever, despite
it being located in the exact same spot as the old AP.
