We have the same issue with 802.11g or a.

The easiest way to verify is to do what Thorsten suggested: use the 
"sample" rate control and take a look at /proc/sys/dev/ath0/rate to see 
what it says. Another alternative that works very well is to use 
another computer with a wireless care that supports Monitor mode (such 
as another Atheros card) and take a look at the data rates shown for 
each packet in Ethereal.
