Hi, I'm going to buy a Linksys WUSB54G v4 wireless adapter and I'd like
to use it to set up an access point with hostapd (but not only for this
purpose, of course)

I read in the man pages that:

"The ural driver supports automatic control of the transmit speed in BSS
mode only.  Therefore the use of a ural adapter in Host AP mode is
discouraged." [ural(4) -current]

So, it seems that if I put ural(4) in hostap mode I can't get automatic
change of the trasmission rate. The question is: what kind of problems I
will face imposing a fixed speed? Will the other stations deassociate
whenever the signal strength goes under a certain limit? I will be
forced to use the minimum speed? Are there any workarounds for this
issue?


P.S.:
Well, more than a couple of question, I see...
