I certainly think it is in range for a 15-17 NT and do not mind either 
opening except 1D gives me a rebid problem (see below)

Certainly not 1N - you are too strong.

2D is a significant underbid but the suit is a bit ropy for 3D which leads

me to think the best thing to do is open 1N.  However if your style is to 
jump rebid on hands like this then opening 1D and rebidding 3D is fine.
