I'm hoping the 11a goes away, if it leads to more b/g coverage (unlikely,
considering they're probably provided by the same access points, but I live
in hope).

Why is that? I have a Japanese 11a/b/g both in my Thinkpad and Panasonic
laptops. Unfortunately, it seems that some moron's been in charge when the
frequency sets for 11a were chosen (or I'm a moron), as I can't see the 11a
networks in IETFs at all. I _suspect_ it is our good friend region-coding
that is acting up - apparently both of my laptops subscribe to the ZZJ
(Japan) frequency set according to the Intel driver in Linux, and
unfortunately I can't change that while travelling.

Wireless hardware for fixed operations? sigh..

And as a side note.. 67th IETF was the first one where I maintained network
connectivity throughout the plenaries, good job!

Cheers,

-Markus
