Android Wifi Direct Speed

I have been going over this Wifi Direct tutorial for Android: Android Wi-Fi Peer-to-Peer

I created the Wifi Direct connection between two devices and I used java sockets to transfer a file, very much like the tutorial. However my transfer speed is usually around 11 Mbps, maybe a little less.

I was wondering if anyone has been able to get higher transfer rates(like 54 Mbps or 30Mbps) with Wifi Direct? I think it's supposed to be possible.

I am now working on some wifi-direct project and the speed really varies. Sometimes it could reach as much as 25Mbps but sometimes it is extremely slow - the worst time I experienced is that it took about 180 seconds to transfer only 2 MB. My opinion is that it highly depends on the wifi environment around the device.
