Q: migration is taking to long over a wi-fi?

I bought a new macbook pro and I've been transfering data since last night.  Now is saying "less than a minute remaining" for almost 4 hrs and haven't finish yet.  Any suggestions?

Imac, Mac OS X (10.5.2)

    The time estimate is an estimate and is not always correct. I'd let it run. It is also affected by the amount of data being transferred and the transfer speed of the Wi-Fi. An Ethernet cable would probably be 2-3 times faster.
