There are quite a few free apps in the Market that do just what you want and some do more than that that too.
I don't have my Hero here with me to check it, but I think a good one I downloaded is called "WIFI pal" or something similar.

I didn't really understand what your problem is with the N band ( which luckily next month will cease to be preN or draft N to finally be just N), but I hope you are aware that to start streaming on N band to your devices, besides the firmwares and an N router, you also need the appropriate receivers on each device that you want to connect to the network and such a receiver does not exist for the Hero nor for any other cellphone ever produced, so if you're swiching to N make sure that your N router is backward compatible with devices using the G frequencies simultaneously, and even then, since the Hero is a pretty choosy little SOB, try it out before parting with your cash.
