Switching modes to 802.11n on TP-Link TL-MR3040

So I downloaded and installed the openwrt image for my TP-Link TL-MR3040. Everything is set up and running good, but I noticed in the hostapd.conf file there is a line:

hw_mode=g

I'd love to up the speed a bit, since the MR3040 supports N. But I've been around the block a few times, and I know it's never that simple.

Are there any gotchas or bugaboos I should know about as far as how to change my Openwrt Piratebox on my MR3040 over from running 802.11g to 802.11n? Also, aside from objective transfer tests, is there anywhere I can go via ssh to verify if it's indeed running n instead of g?
