This is far better (the rate sets itself to 24Mb/s or 36 Mb/s rather than
being fixed on 54 Mb/s). However when using iwl3945 the rate could not be
forced using iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M fixed and it took a little . The rate
it chooses also seems to bounce about a bit - simply telling networkmanager
to reconnect results in a different speed (although it's hard to tell how
good the connection is while this is happening).
