I found the resolution to my slow Samba transfers with this bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/211884

In short, the problem:
Connection speed set by the nm-applet is always 1 Mb/s (when it should be 54 Mb/s)

The solution:
#sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M (courtesy of Christian Mangold).

Not sure about my exact transfer rates, but my 350MB file is now taking ~6mins vs. 186mins
