The speed of the internet on the iMac will be affected either way, it's
still the same internet connection whether you use a router or internet
sharing.
However, cable internet is fast enough that with the kids just playing
internet games, the slight speed drop may not even be noticeable
depending on what she's doing on the internet.

iMac and cable modem are on a 6' table. So no obstacles at all. She
doesn't care about the speed to the iBook. Her grand kids want to play
on sites like pbskids.com. Would the speed on the iMac be affected,
too? If so, how much slower?
