Network 802.11g Speed?

OK so I set up a basic network btwn 2 PCs - one is directly connected to an 802.11g router via ethernet cable, and the other is connected using an 802.11g PCI card. I got both computers on the network using XP network wizard, and can see and transfer all the files. BUT i thought "g" was supposed to be 54mbps? I'm only transferring at 2-3 MBps (firewalls are all down, file sharing enabled, NetBIOS over TCP/IP enabled.) How can I increase transfer speed btwn these two comps? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
 
How is the reception on the wireless PC?

If it's not getting a good signal, you are not going to get a very fast transfer rate.
 
It's not bad, says it's connected at 40-54mbps. I read on another thread that it might be because I don't have SP2 installed on the wireless PC while I do have it on my main PC. Any other suggestions?
