I was playing around with my wireless router, and switched the mode to a fixed mode B.
Now< I can no longer assoicate to the AP. Windows does not give any particular error message, but with wireshark I see that the returned error is that the client does not support the necessary data rate.
My wireless card is type n, and it is set to mode a/b/g compatible. I tried setting ot to just b, however this made no difference.
How can I set the data rate of my card so that I can connect again to my AP?
I would prefer not to just reset the device, as there has been some configuration done that would be a pain to redo, and as well I do not have the ISP password handy. Regardless I would like to understand this situation better.
