No. Acturally a router might takes up too much memory, but it does not slow down your computer, at least when it is not running.
When you don't need to use router, just close it, do not hang it there.

Computer slowdown can be due to lots of reasons:
* Bloated registry with errors
* Fragmented registry and hard disk
* Too many junk files take up the memory
* ......

Programs running is not the main reason. You'd better use a registry cleaner or system optimizer to do the above system cleanup and optimizing work. Many well-designed system optimizers don't require expert knowledge and beginners can do that easily.

If I have a computer with a 802.11 g NIC on a 802.11 n network does it slow down the rest of the network to g speeds?

If your router is configured to work in G mode only, then the answer is yes. If the router is configured to use mixed mode (B and G), then the answer is no. N type adapters will perform as they are supposed too (if the router is configured properly).
