Okay, I was writing too soon. My rate does go up and down now (pinging the other end of the wireless link, it varies between 12Mb to 36Mb). I don't know why it was stuck at 1Mb for a while earlier (10-20 minutes while I was doing a fair bit of web browsing, etc), nor why it is go up and down now :-(.
