Thanks Carthik!

$ sudo iwlist eth1 rate
eth1      12 available bit-rates :
           1Mb/s
           2Mb/s
           5.5Mb/s
           11Mb/s
           6Mb/s
           9Mb/s
           12Mb/s
           18Mb/s
           24Mb/s
           36Mb/s
           48Mb/s
           54Mb/s
           Current Bit Rate:54Mb/s

Not bad at all.  Of course, it's on the same desk as the access point.
