Different speeds with PC and phone.

[groucho]

My mate is around mine at the moment with his new gadget phone thingy. I accessed the internet on his phone via my wireless router and ran a speed test; it said I was getting 16.72 Mbps.
Now, I only pay for 2Mbps, and if I run the same test on my pc, using the same router, obviously, I rarely get above 300 Kbps. (yeah I know, crap. I'm in the process of sorting it out)

Why's that then?

Are you sure it went via the router and didn't dial it's own 3G connection (although that figure is rather high for 3G).

No, can't be sure.
