Card. Basically, the Fully Auto setting allows the PC Card to automatically switch to a 
higher Tx rate for better throughput in most environment. A fixed rate setting does not allow 
PC Card to re-transmit at a lower rate even as a result of many retransmissions. 
 

PS Mode (Power Saving Mode) 

Enabling power saving mode can extend the battery life of the mobile notebook by allowing 
the PC Card to sleep, minimizing the power consumption. 
 

Channel 

  DW-655H Wireless LAN PC Card supports up to 14 channels. However, the number of 
available channels varies in different countries and regions. The Access Point must be set 
to a channel. To avoid radio interference, adjacent Access Point within the same 
infrastructure network (the same SSID) should set to different channel. The channels of 
Access Points must be at least five channels apart, while the Wireless LAN PC Cards 
automatically use the same channels as the Access Point and roams between APs in the 
same wireless network. 
 

Encryption 

The Wireless LAN PC Card uses WEP encryption to protect wireless data communications. 
 

Encryption Selection 

WEP uses a combination of 40-bit keys or 128-bit keys to provide security for every data 
transmission. In order to decode a data transmission, an identical WEP key must be used 
by each wireless client on the network. Choose Enable or Disable to activate the security of 
wireless network. 

Create with Passphrase 

The WEP keys can be generated from a user-defined passphrase. The WEP text string is a 
maximum of 32 characters.
