Surely wireless-g can go faster than this...

I've got 2 Windows 7 machines in the house, both using wireless networking: one is wireless-n; the other is wireless-g. The router between the two is a D-Link DIR655 - 'Xtreme-N gigabit router'. I've tried a couple times today to copy some files to a shared folder, and each time the best speed I got between the two machines was (according to Windows) 512KB/sec 🙁

What can I do to try and improve this speed? Replacing the wireless-g adapter with another wireless-n adapter would probably help, but what else?

Thanks!

Read the sticky. With interference wireless can be crippled to dial-up speeds. 512 KB/sec would be totally normal with other 2.4 Ghz in the area. In a perfect environment you'll get around 2000 KB/sec. Perfect environment. Wireless is slow.
 
500 KB/s is slow, but can happen as spidey07 said. I get about 2.4 MB/s (2,400 KB/s) but my laptop is pretty close to the router. Read the sticky for things to change.
