[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] 802.11g Ad-Hoc Link?

It occurred to me that the fastest way to transfer data to the 770 is over an 
ad-hoc 54Mbps link. However, it looks to me like the WLAN driver is going 
into 802.11b (11 Mbps) mode when I set up an ad-hoc network. How can I switch 
54Mbps mode back on? "iwconfig wlan0 rate 54" gives an invalid argument 
error, and there are no private ioctls that seem to do what I want. The 
laptop at the other end of the link is using an Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG 
card with the latest release of the ipw2200 Linux driver. Any help would be 
appreciated.
