802.11g is 54Mbps. The linkys site then shows that if you have speedbooster enabled products on both the router and the PC or Laptop, (which means you need a Linksys Speedbooster wireless adaptor in your laptop / PC), you can get an extra 35% performance potential.

125Mbps service needs the unratified 802.11n standard. That is not supported by the WRT54GS routers, and most inbuilt wireless cards to PCs / laptops.
It's just the speedboost technology between a Linksys router and Linksys speedboost adaptor.

You would be wrong not to get the WRT54GS for the sake of a few £. The routers are the same but if you have a compatible wireless card you will get far greater boost in speed between the two devices.
