I think you've got those reversed. 802.11b and g operate at the same 
frequency (2.5GHz) You will see a slowdown in throughput when 802.11b 
devices are associated with your 802.11g AP, and moreso when they send 
and recieve data.

See http://www.tomsnetworking.com/Sections-article42-page8.php for some 
details (it's a little old, but explains well).
