Sebastian, after sorting out the router, it's still biased, but far less
so, about a 2:1 ratio between upload and download.

Also, my understanding was that with rts/cts, the router was in control of
that aspect of things?  So the AP should be able to balance those?  (or
perhaps the swamped load on the router is interfering, I'd need another
full-size machine on the wired side of the AP to know for sure.
