Yeap. It's the speed. Wireless G is 54 Mbit/s, G+ is 108Mbit/s as for B it's 11Mbit/s

Wireless print is not a problem as long as the printer is connected to the network in some way.

But what'll be the device to receive the wireless signal?

just use printer sharing on the machine with the printer

I'm gonna have to recommend the Linksys WRT54G wireless router. I have had it for about 8 months and it the best router I have ever come into contact with. The only thing is that you need to have some skill in configuring internet settings and MAC filtering etc..

Adrian knows all about that kinda stuff incase you need some help.
