This could be more that WiFi has such variative signals, standards and sometimes is throttled by the router.
You guys getting garbage hardwire speeds might want to check into stuff like, does your PC even have a gigabit NIC? Are you running more than 20 feet of Cat5e cable (every 10 feet past 20 feet adds signal noise and speed drops, though not usually an extreme amount unless the cable sucks/is degrading)? Is your kid (or neighbor) running torrents all day everyday and sapping your connection?
