Ok, so here's my final complete workaround for this issue in gutsy, thanks to all those who have contributed! Hopefully this hack will not be needed in Hardy.
1. Create a new script "bitratehack" in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/
2. Paste in the following:
#!/bin/sh
ACTION=$2
if [ "$ACTION" = "up" ]; then
iwconfig eth1 rate 2M
fi
