Wireless G & internet speed

Greetings. I have one computer, cable internet, and Linksys 802.11b router.
Would an 802.11g router increase my internet speed and performance? My
understanding was that it benefits between computer communication on the
network, but it wouldn't change much in terms of internet speed performance.
Thanks.

802.11B's 'speed' is 11MB/sec while 802.11G's 'speed' is 54MB/sec (at least
theoretically); your home user cable/whatever Internet connection is
4-5MB/sec - it might be 1-2 more MBs more MBs for premium subscribers. You
would need the extra bandwidth of 802.11G if you have more computers
connected via the Linksys router - your Internet bandwidth will be split
among clients (computers) as well, though.
You are right, no significant Internet 'speed' whatsoever.
