I found
sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M
did it for me. Impressively so.

However, this code is lost everytime a system restart/shut down is performed. To save time, as a work around, I put this code into a custom application launcher which I launch whenever I power up/restart my PC.

Hopefully someone else will see this post and offer a solution to make the code above permanent.
