    Since they both operate on the 2.4GHz band, will a Bluetooth and 802.11g network interfere with each other?

    Well my linksys router has an option for bluetooth collaboration, so there is obviously a method top stop them breaking each other

    just to mention, the scenario outlined in that link explains how several Bluetooth networks coexist together, rather than how 802.11b/g and Bluetooth cope with eachother...

    there can indeed be a level of interference, here is an old article circa Feb '02: Can Bluetooth, Wi-Fi coexist in the future?

    things have progressed though with efforts made to try and achieve better coexistence, such as adaptive frequency hopping being implemented in the Bluetooth Core Spec 1.2

    here's a pretty in-depth article on measuring such inteference:
