So, by my calcs:
wireless transfer rate = 1600 / 600 = 2.6 megabits per second
wired transfer rate = 1600 / 120 = 13.3 megabits per second

I think that's the same sort of speeds as I'm seeing - I'll check tomorrow.
7 mins = 420 seconds

682 MegaBytes = 5456 megabits

5456 / 420 = 12.99 megabits per second

I used a DivX compressed .avi movie for the test since this is probably the most common file anybody would want to move accross a media PC's connection.

These are the speeds of my wireless network, as you can see it is bareley slower than the wired network in your example and I was having interferrence problems (No functional problem it just slows the transmission) this was probably due to my room feeling like a sauna at the moment
