Please correct me if im wrong, Wireless adapters for laptops are backwards compatible. Where i can buy a wireless N card and connect to a 802.11g router, even though they are different brands (netgear and linksys). Thanks!

Yes, correct. Although if the router is G there isn't much point. You wont get N speeds or range.
