ok

my network is comprised of 2 laptops,
my primary which is a macbook pro running as a media center connected with N
the other is a dell mini 9 connected with G

I also run 2 gaming consoles
a ps3 with n support
and a xbox360 with g support

what I plan on doing is have the macbook pro connect as on the N 5ghz connection using wpa2/aes

everything else will connect with with the 2.4ghz with wpa

question is will the wrt610n support 2 ssid's, each with a different security setting. and since both will be using a different security, will the over head be higher on both channels? or will the security overhead be contained to each separate ssid.

Yes

Each radio has its own BB/MAC, which is where the security processing is done. Security overhead is independent.
