Something I've just done with my AP900+-es (if there is a better way to
describe more than on AP900+, I'd love to know :-) is to set the TX and
Basic rates to 1-2 Mbps - which has changed the dropped packet rate from
60% to 20% (with flood pinging) (And because my modem only speaks
400bps, all I notice is a more reliable link ;-)
