Morning Tony,
There are a couple of layers here, but nothing untoward.
The wireless access point connects (gigabit) to a GS608 switch. Both ReadyNAS boxes connect to that same switch.
The router is a couple of hops away, through a further GS608 switch. When I connect Wired to the ReadyNAS (either using the desktop or laptop), I am going through either two or three switches before hitting the ReadyNAS.
Further testing has improved the Wireless performance a bit but not massively.

Thanks for your help. I'm going to try some other wireless NIC cards today and see if that makes a change.
