Do you need a n router or a g router for a home?
N access point/router is an overkill for home applications unless internal home network has several (~5+) computers, which exchange a lot of data. Speed of a G WiFi network is already much higher than a typical cable or DSL Internet link so upgrading to N WiFi is pointless if Internet speed access is the only consideration.

Is there any benefit to a n router versus a g router if your laptop has g wireless?
There is no significant advantage, you would need a wireless networking card on the expresscard slot, usb port, or on the internal mini-pci express slots.
You bought an wireless g router but your new laptop has a N card - will it work?
Yes, it'll work, but only at G speeds (50mbps) as opposed to N speeds (200+). Both wireless standards use 2.4ghz as a radio frequency, which is why they'll communicate - the difference is that N devices also broadcast a 5ghz signal as well. When overlapped, both frequencies increase signal and range. When you setup your router, go to the router admin panel and make sure the mode is set to Mixed - if you set it to G only you might have a problem with signal strength or speed. My advice (and I'm a computer & network consultant) is to take your g router back and get an N router. The speed difference is a lot, especially if you're doing any online gaming or media streaming. If you are, consider going to Dual-Band N, which essentially gives you 2 network channels in one system. DBN allows you to access both the 5 and 2.4ghz channels individually, so you can prioritize data on either one. For example, if you've ever noticed how your connection slows down if you have family members downloading at the same time, you could put their systems on one frequency band and have priority data that you use/access broadcast over the other band. Your regular N card in your laptop won't allow you to access both bands - you need a DBN adapter for that if you get a DBN router. But it's worth it if you access a lot of media streaming on the 'net.
