You should have settings both on your router and your network cards to move them to full duplex. This should speed up your transfers significantly. There would be no error checking, but it would be fast enough to re-transfer the error'ed portion over again.
Also, you have 802.11b. 11mbps only. 802.11g runs at 54mbs. Not true 54mbs, but certainly faster than 802.11b. What's really going to be nice is when 802.16 comes out, also being called WiMax.
From WiMax.org:

It provides up to 50-kilometers of service area range, allows users to get broadband connectivity without needing direct line of sight with the base station, and provides total data rates of up to 280 Mbps per base station - a sufficient amount of bandwidth to simultaneously support hundreds of businesses with T1/E1-type connectivity and thousands of homes with DSL-type connectivity with a single base station.
