That does mean that with Virgin, you'll max out your 72Mbit wireless but don't expect to get anything near that on a speed test as wireless is very finicky. Expect more like 40Mbit on a good day.
To get the most of your connection, you'll need a better wireless card/receiver or better yet, a wired connection.
So if I am understanding this correctly to get the best out of the VM I would need better wireless receivers in my devices or hard wire everything, which goes back to my earlier quote of should I upgrade my Homeplugs that are only currently 54mb?

And when I speed test on my Laptop I am only speed testing my wireless speed?
