Actual throughput (I believe) is half, so at best, you'll get 3-3.5MB/sec transfer speeds on a 54g WiFi connection. Depending on the siting of your clients and router, interference will reduce this rate, as will encryption.
Summary: if you're on a 3MB connection or higher and using WiFi, you'll take a performance hit.

As others have said,
Generally you factor by 9 or 10 to allow for network overhead
so 8mbps = approx 0.9 Mb/s
and 54Mb/s = 54 Mb/s
Remember 54Mb/s is half of ethernet 100Mb/s so I think it can handle
10mbps(approx 1Mb/s) over the net.
