Cable Modem Speeds?


I tried my iMac connected in three different ways to my cable modem.

1. wi-fi and ethernet (via hardline)


2. hardline (CAT5) only


3. wi-fi only



The results are here.

Why the super high speed when both hardline and wi-fi are combined. I don't think the networking protocols are set up by Apple to utilize all available access paths simultaneously...it would be cool and explain the fast speed but I think something else is going on here.

Techies......comments welcome.
