What’s the difference between 802.11b, 802.11g, G+, G+ MIMO, and

Pre-N?

Currently there are four levels of wireless networking standards,
which transmit data at very different maximum speeds. Each is
based on the designation for certifying network standards. The
most common wireless networking standard, 802.11b, transmits
information at 11Mbps; 802.11g works at 54Mbps; G+, G+
MIMO, and Pre-N work at 108Mbps. Pre-N, the precursor to
the upcoming 802.11n release, promises speeds that exceed
802.11g, and up to twice the wireless coverage area. See the
following chart for more detailed information.
