Speed booster only really works if both the router and the wireless adaptor or whatever is attached to the PC are both speedbooster. Linksys will claim speedbooster shows improvement on non enabled kit, but I suspect it's marginal.

More to the point, unless you are doing a lot of stuff internally to yoru LAN (data transfer, etc) you are limited to the speed of your internet service, as that is currently much slower than the basic wireless Speedboost would show very little effect.
