Comment:
In r1480 I checked in some changes to SampleRate to make it pick a initial
bit-rate
based on the rssi of the node.
I also checked in a change to send acks at low bit-rates in r1478.
Beacons and Management frames should be sent at the lowest bit-rate
available.
I think these changes should fix the problems from the original bug
report. If they are not,
please re-open the bug and let me know. This is something I am very
interested in fixing.
