I remember seeing in a post somewhere on MacRumors how to tell if your MB/MBP is 802.11 is n enabled but can not find the thread. Can someone please tell me how I can tell if my MBP is 802.11n or not? I have the Linksys WRT300N running DD-WRT firmware so I have the ability on that end.

If you haven't bought the new Airport Extreme, or downloaded and installed the enabler, then you dont have it enabled.
 
The N enabler is meant for users of the Apple branded Airport Extreme.

People who buy other brand of routers are not guaranteed to have everything just work(tm).
 
Applications > Utilities > Network Utility. Choose your WiFi interface (probably en1) and look at Model, for example mine says "802.11 a/b/g" under Model.
