ahh, marketing. Some people will believe anything! Check the table at http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/wireless/2003/08/08/wireless_throughput.html
or numerous other guides courtesy of google. This shows that maximum throughput is roughly 27Mb/s for 54g, but in my experience its much less in the real world. Note that configuring a card for 54mb/s is the maximum - unless you are quite close (distance wise), have little interference and dont have a busy 802.11b on the same AP, you are not even going to see a 54, but a fallback. And I think encryption will clip it even further if you are using that (as you should be!)
