Simply enter the following in the "WLAN > Wireless security" tab in the "custom config box":
Code: basic_rates=60 120 240
supported_rates=60 90 120 180 240 360 480 540
and the B rates are gone

You can read about it yourself: https://svn.dd-wrt.com/ticket/7338
BS has added 11Mbit (B-rate) because allegedly someone complained that there are problems with any Android devices (without B-rate)
Can none of us understand but good.
The point of NG-Mixed is surely that you don't want to have B-rates.
If you want to have B-rates you can also select "Mixed".

It says backwards compatibility.
As I said, the point of NG-Mixed is that you don't want to have B rates, otherwise you can just take Mixed, which is B/G/N.

hostap rates are in 100K not 1Mbit..
