script for changing WiFi xfer rates?

eggshapedfred · 2003-09-16 16:29:52

Hi, I was wondering if there is a script i can run that will change the transfer rate of my WiFi card (ie drop it from 11M to 5.5M to 2M to 1M and vice versa) without restarting the network each time a change is made? I'm using linux Red Hat 9 and the Siemens I-Gate cards (Lucent chipset).
