Wired vs (bad) Wireless communications speeds

People,

Between my laptop and my server there is a WiFi modem and an ADSL 
router and I think the comms is too slow.  The device speed for each is:

  Server: Intel 82567LF Gigabit: 10/100/1000 Mb/s

  Belkin Wireless F5D7230-4v7: 10/100 Mb/s

  Belkin ModemRouter F1PI241ENau: 10/100 Mb/s

  Asus Zenbook UX31: ath9k: 54 Mb/s
                     RJ45 via USB: 10/100 Mb/s

and Cat5 cables.

On an unloaded network I can get about 6.5 Mb/s when I use the cable 
connection to the laptop but nothing better than about 1.5 Mb/s for the 
wireless connection - and even that is when the laptop and the wireless 
router are only about 1.5m apart (the XFCE network icon shows connection 
quality is then at about 90%).

Anyone know why the wireless performance is not better than this?

Thanks,

Phil.
