If you test it ten times, you will get 10 differet results. It depends on how many people are using that server.

I agree with what Sterling said. In order to figure out a more accurate speed, try downloading a large file from a known high-speed server. Keep the conditions as similar as possible between the wired and wireless attempts (similar time of day, for example), and see what your real-world transfer rate difference is.

You have to try a bunch of different tests, located as near to you as possible, to get a clear view of throughput. The highest number you get will be the closest to the truth.

Did you optimized the TCP/IP Stack for the type of connection?

Don't forget the receiveWindow also. Optimizing that for BB can make a difference too. And turning off QoS packet scheduling.
