Transmit Rate
The SMC2642W 11Mbps Wireless CF Card provides various data rate options for
you to select. Data rates options include Fully Automatic, 2 Mb, Auto 1 or 2
Mb, 5.5 Mb, and 11 Mb. In most networking scenarios, you will see that the
factory-set default "Fully Automatic" will prove to be the most efficient. This
setting will allow your 11Mbps Wireless CF Card to operate at the maximum data
rate. When the communications quality drops below a certain level, the CF Card
will automatically switch to a lower data rate. Transmission at lower data speeds
are usually more reliable. However, when the communications quality improves
again, the SMC2642W 11Mbps Wireless CF Card will gradually increase the data
rate again, until it reaches the highest available transmit rate.
