Understanding IEEE 802.11g Throughput

The throughput of the IEEE standard 802.11g can theoretically reach up to 54 Mbps (megabits per second) under optimal conditions. However, in practical scenarios, the actual throughput is often lower due to factors such as distance from the access point, interference, and network congestion. Typically, users can expect a throughput of around 20-25 Mbps in a real-world environment.
