I'm trying to strengthen a wireless connection that spans about 150
feet and has to go through about 5 walls. I bought two of these:

for either end of the connection, but I'm having trouble making it
work well. I've noticed the connection will be perfect for a short
time, but then disappear. When watching iwconfig during this process,
it looks like the connection is good when on a low rate, but when it
goes to 54 Mbps it falls apart.
Should limiting the rate solve this problem? If so, how can I do
that? I'm using hostapd on the AP and wpa_supplicant on the client.
