To start with, ifconfig reports

If I bring up wlan0 (the internal wifi interface then ifconfig reports

At the moment, there's a ping session running to the gateway continuously.
Times are sub-2ms unloaded, until I start loading a big page under chromium,
whereupon ping times go.....dammit, everthing works just fine 8-(
At the moment I'm baffled.
Thanks for writing, apologies for the goose chase.
