How to force a wireless network adapter to operate at certain bit rate?

Hi,

Is there a way (how) to force a wireless network adapter to operate at
certain bit rate?
Assume we have a 802.11g adapter but want it to operate it at
1MBits/sec. How to do this?

Is it true that lower the bitrate higher the chance of error free
connection between wireless nodes?

Thank U

Albert

use iwconfig to override the speed.

Not really.
