What does the Interface: tell you is being used when you click on this is it
802/11 WiFi(eth1) or something else?  The speed will be different and slower
the greater distance you are away from the wireless base station.  Mine is
about 6 feet from the base station using the 1390 wlan card and it averages
10Mb/s if I remember correctly.
