Wireless viability for online gaming

Ok, first off the gear I'm using is a Netgear 54 mbps wireless usb adapter WG111 and a Netgear WGR614 router. Both are 802.11g and b compatible. Now my problem is that I encounter frequent periods of lag where I can't do anything for 10-20 seconds in online games like BF2, DoD and WoW and sometimes even get disconnected from the server. Is this because my adapter sucks or my router sucks or something isn't configured right or is it because wireless just can't handle online games?

Other than games it doesn't seem to drop my connection at all. Any help is appreciated
