Question Packet loss and really slow wireless network connection

I've just installed Fedora 15 Beta and I'm having issues with the wireless network connection. The network connection is slow (google.com takes about a minute to load fully). Packet loss seems to be the issues (see below), although the laptop and router work together nicely when I'm using Windows.

Any ideas?

Thanks
