Wireless N and G, interferance when physically next to each other?

Forum Wireless Networking : General Discussion Wireless N and G, interferance when physically next to each other?

Word :    Username :           
 

I've looked over the forums and google and have been unable to find a clear answer. Here is my situation. I have a 7.0mbps DSL modem/wireless G router in my kitchen. I currently connect my Laptop, XBOX 360 and desktop to the wireless network. I get great steady speed but it's G speed. Can I setup a wireless N1 router right next to the current router and use the N speeds for my desktop upstairs, while keeping my Xbox 360 and laptop connecting to the G network so they don't slow down the N network?

Will the networks interfere with each other since they are literally being broadcast next to each other?

Thanks.
