I set my Belkin with DD-WRT build 18946 to N-only, yet my LG Optimus V phone which only supports G still links up fine via WiFi. So I'm not sure if the N-only setting even works in this build.

Sounds like you're using it in 20 mhz mode. 300 Mbps (really maxes out at 270) requires a double channel - 40 mhz of bandwidth.
