I recently had installed a Linksys Wireless-g network this is supposedly faster
than what you mention and I would be careful about distance. I have 4 PC's in
this network and the furthest PC from the main is about 50 ft yet at times the
signal is pretty weak.

Cable input, Wireless-g WAP54G router and WMP54G network cards 2.4 GHz 54g.
