Turning them off didn't fix it.
I have switched to 802.11b:
ath0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

Sometimes it goes to 11Mbps, but usually stays at 5.5. Guess what,
browsing has been much better now. Even though slowness occured a couple
of times in the last 16 hours on 802.11b, it hasnt actually halted
completly once.
What does it indicate?
