I now tried to force the card to 11MBit/s just for a test. I noticed
the following:

root@schrebbel:~ # iwconfig rate 11M
Error for wireless request "Set Bit Rate" (8B20) :
	SET failed on device eth0 ; Operation not supported.

Well. As one might expect, this confuses me a bit, since the card is a
"b" as well as "g". This could also mean the card tries to communicate
over "g" with the AP all the time ... Horm. :/
