B & A were the first to come out with B typically used in a home environment and A in a corporate.
G is the next hot thing with increased bandwidth AND backwards compatabile with B. I've recently set up a hybrid network in my house. Using a Netgear wired router as a base and then adding a G access point. I currently have 4 PCs (3 hardwired, 1 wireless) and 1 laptop (wireless).
All components are Netgear. I've also heard Linksys is very good and reliable also. Key thing with wireless is ensure proper placement so a signal is strong and as unobstructed as possible.
If you have a desire for streaming video (bandwidth hog), G is the wau to go.
