Dear Jonathan,

I did not adjust the speed or gain settings. I left those as default.  Every device I've tested with the new WAP only detects the 802.11ag radio and 54Mbps operational speed. This includes five different laptops with Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6200 AGN wireless adapters. I have six (3x 2.4GHz, 3 x 5GHz) dipole antennas attached.

What kind of encryption scheme are You using ?
802.11n only supports non-encryption or WPA2/AES. 
A common pitfall while migrating from legacy speeds to 802.11n, is an SSID with WEP encryption.

WMM is enabled by default (AFAIK) on the autonomous  AP, so You should be fine in that regard.

Finally You should consider enabling 40MHz band on the 5 GHz radio.

Channel <frequency> width 40-above 
or
channel <frequency> width 40-below

Depending on whether the extension channel shall be below or above the control channel.

Anders
