That demonstrates that the link between your PC and your router is very
healthy -- it makes the "54 Mbps/Excellent" report credible.

Next, if you have two PCs on your LAN (one wired and one wireless) try
PINGing WiredPC from WirelessPC and WirelessPC from WiredPC to see how
quickly your router routes traffic between the wired segment and the
wireless segment.

Then, PING www.YourISP.com from WiredPC and from WirelessPC. That
should give you a clue to the source of the bottleneck.
