Buy yourself a WRT54GL (L model) then throw DD-WRT on it, it allows you to adjust the mW output power. The default is 28mw, max is 200mW, "safe" is considered no higher than 70mW (at that point it starts to get too noisy on the RF). I run mine at 50mW, and at the office where I have a bunch in a WDS I run them at 50mW as well for better range.
