I dont think my router even has N on it. I'm just not sure about the speed and being dropped from games.

I'm running an old Xbox 1 wireless-g adapter.

No issues at all.

I have the wireless adapter, but I don't use it since I converted one of my routers into a wireless bridge.

Both work very well, so much that I often have the best connection out of everyone in the room when I'm playing COD that I'm chosen as the host.

I have the XBox 360 Wireless adapter (G, not N) and it works perfectly. I stream HD movies and they buffer in 15 seconds or less. Also, I have never experienced a problem gaming.

unless you are using your xbox as a server of some type there is no reason to get the N adapter. Nobody here has a connection fast enough to need more than G offers. I used to use the G adapter but have since built a CAT5e cable to run from my router upstairs to my xbox downstairs. I prefer wired, but wireless never really failed me.
