Found this on another forum and didn't see it mentioned here, but it sure worked for me.

Go to Menu -> Settings -> Wireless and networks -> Wi-Fi Settings, then hit Menu again -> Advanced, and select "Best Wi-Fi performance." Not sure what it changed but it sure did work. I'll have to remember and run a speed check to see what the differences are.

It also notes that it "may" decrease battery life.
 
Your WI-FI performance would really depend on the internet provider, the routers performance, and current traffic.

Depends on whether you are accessing a public wi-fi or a home network wi-fi. you didn't specify.
