Dell Inspiron D600 wireless speed

I'm running xubuntu 12.04.

Getting the wireless was a little tricky, but after some research two simple commands did the trick:

sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter

sudo apt-get install firmware-b43legacy-installer

So my wireless is up and working however very low throughput. I have a 9mb/s Internet connection. On Ethernet, speed test shows 8.5mb/.7mb which it about right. When I test it wireless, throughput is .75mb/.61mb.

How can I resolve this?
