Which is the PSB spec? The current version of 802.11 (-2012) clearly
wants to round up:
8.4.2.3 Supported Rates element
...
Within Beacon, Probe Response, Association Response,
Reassociation Response, Mesh Peering Open, and Mesh Peering
Confirm management frames, each Supported Rate contained in the
BSSBasicRateSet parameter is encoded as an octet with the MSB
(bit 7) set to 1, and bits 6 to 0 are set to the data rate, if
necessary rounded up to the next 500kb/s, in units of 500 kb/s.
For example, a 2.25 Mb/s rate contained in the BSSBasicRateSet
parameter is encoded as X'85'.
