I'm very sure you should be getting these signals.  I've verified that
the Bitrate property of the the Device.Wireless interface does get a
PropertiesChanged signal emitted when it changes.

Run "dbus-monitor --system" and walk away from your AP, for example.
The bitrate should drop the farther away you get.
