Except if there's periodic interference, like a microwave. In this
case, where the microwave cycles on and off, the longer it takes to
transmit the frame (ie, a lower rate) the *more* likely it is to get
partially squelched by the microwave turning on in its next cycle. Here
a faster rate can be more robust since it can transmit the entire frame
in between microwave cycles.
