If possible, disable that Super Turbo Wireless G crap and run straight, proper, CORRECT 802.11g, and see if that helps.

All it takes is one device to get confused by that proprietary crap, and it can impact your wireless network significantly with re-transmits, frame errors, broadcasts, etc.

Usually those hacks to get better than standard performance out of the 802.11g spec are vendor specific anyways, so unless you have a D-Link WAP talking to a D-Link wireless card, its not going to make much difference even on a good day.
