A slightly different approach, how about one of the Fon/Open Mesh type devices (don't know which support 802.11a but sure some must) and one of these as a switch: http://www.scan.co.uk/products/8-port-eten-pw-108-pocket-size-metal-casing-10-100-switch-usb-powered-lan-party! They are really nice solid metal 8 port switches which run off USB or mains so if you can find a Fon with USB port you power that and piggy back the switch power. They do 4 port ones as well but the 8 port was so little extra it was worth it. If you can't find a Fon type device I'm sure Ubiquiti will do a Pico or similar that handles abg and probably n.
