Ben,

To be honest, I am not sure what your test aims for.  It just show scp
performance on WRAP, not the network interface throughput of WRAP. 
Initially, I thought you are testing the network, but you end-up
testing the file system.

Moreover, I am not still fully understand, what is your testing
envirnoment.  Are you testing two WRAPs connected each other with
voyage linux loaded?

What do you mean by wireless performance?  Are you using 11a or 11g. 
26Mbit is closed to the practical limit of 11g.

If you want to test network performance, use iperf.

What kind of disk/flash disk do you host the file system?
