54Mbps is just a theoretically possible speed.
In reality, it will be quite impossible to achieve it.

Even though you are connected to the AP successfully, it's not necessary that you will be connected at 54Mbps speed. Sometimes you will only be connect at half the speed, or quarter of the speed, we can check it in the NIC utility.

Using cable and switch will definitely allow you to transfer the files faster.

Last time when I was using the Intel Pro/Set Wireless utility (for their NIC only), I can see the speed which my NIC is being associated with the AP.
