data portion of the frame.
Encryption Errors
The number of frames that were received with encryption errors.

The number of times the client adapter tried to associate to an access
point but was unable to because the access point was not the adapter’s
specified access point.

Refer to the Access Point 1 through Access Point 4 parameters
on
page 5-13
for information on specifying access points.
Data Rate Mismatches
The number of times the client adapter tried to associate to an access
point but was unable to because the adapter’s data rate was not
