How the heck do you have an upload speed higher than your download speed? Usually upload is only a small fraction of what your download speed is.

Not from my ISP, the only option is for 15mb/s DL for an extra $8 a month.

That's great for a wireless card. Although where abouts are you in the country? I mean you are probably just in a hot spot.

That's about the same as the OP is getting. 1 Megabit/s = 128 kb/s.
