My favorite coffeehouse changed to a linksys router, and this is all I
get, HAVING to specify the SSID, with my laptop's default 11mb/s mode

wlan0     802.11b/g NIC  ESSID:"Cool Coffee"
          Mode:Managed  Frequency=2.417 GHz  Access Point: Not-Associated
          Bit Rate:1 Mb/s
          Retry:off   RTS thr=2432 B   Fragment thr:off
          Encryption key:off
          Power Management:off
          Link Quality=32/100  Signal level=13/100  Noise level=0/100
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:120
          Tx excessive retries:1824  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0


too low to use dhclient or anything(but it works in windows)

But, if I plug in my usb 2.0 pcmcia card and my wireless device into
that, it works

wlan0     802.11b/g NIC  ESSID:"Cool Coffee"
          Mode:Managed  Frequency=2.432 GHz  Access Point: 00:16:B6:67:5F:A3
          Bit Rate:54 Mb/s
          Retry:off   RTS thr=2432 B   Fragment thr:off
          Power Management:off
          Link Quality=92/100  Signal level=73/100  Noise level=0/100
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:9
          Tx excessive retries:396  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0


I'd rather not have to do use the usb 2.0 pcmcia adapter everytime I
come to this coffeehouse.  Any ideas how to just use it at the 11mb/s
mode?  It works in windows, even though windows seems to report it as
54mb/s?
