Got a base install of Arch on my backup server, added openssh and can access machine form my desktop
Rsync via ssh is very very very slow, so thinking about using NFS
Set up a static connection via wireless which works fine but I cannot access the web [to update system!]
If I run dhcpcd wlan0 I can use pacman again, wondering if its a resolv.conf issue. Maybe my haste to set up system

I think your wireless is the bottleneck rather than rsync. If I use SSH over my LAN the encryption is barely a factor - the speeds are good, and almost as close to the theoretical maximum as possible).

That might be the answer hook it up to ethernet like a usb external drive....
Had wireless card in my parts box so just used it, like the idea of a remote [well in another room!] server
Not too mention network work be easy to set up too
Thanks

If you have the opportunity to connect it through Ethernet, that's always preferable. Wireless seldomly comes close to its nominal speeds, unlike Ethernet.
If you have a modern CPU the encryption part (SSH) shouldn't put any strains on your system either.
