Found this:
http://www.extremetech.com/article/0...=3&ap=4,00.asp

Excerpt:
"One argument in favor of the newly proposed and partially approved 802.11g wireless network standard has been that 802.11g, which uses the same 2.4GHz radio frequency as 802.11b, is Wi-Fi compatible. You shouldn't read that to mean that if you use 802.11b cards with an 802.11g access point that the 802.11b cards will run faster - they won't. "
