USR makes one of the faster ones, quite a bit faster than my Linksys.
 802.11g has a max theoretical throughput of 54mbps, compared with 11mbps for 802.11b. In practice, I've only found it to be about 3x the speed of 802.11b.

802.11b and 802.11g both operate at 2.4GHz. It's the method of data modulation that differs between the two.
