signal quality.
Fixed 1Mbps—
Always transmit and receive at 1Mbps data rate
regardless of
signal quality.
Auto—
Adjust speed according to signal strength. This mode is the
recommended
setting. It will decrease the amount of transmit and receive errors by
reducing
the speed of transmission in favor of receiving error-free data. Note that
data
being sent at Fixed 11Mbps with low signal quality will not necessarily
get the
data to the computer faster. This is because when errors occur, the data
must be
resent. When the signal quality is low, the chances for errors to occur at
high
speeds are greatly increased. Sending the data at lower speeds when
the signal
quality is poor will reduce the chances of errors, and thus data will get to
the
computer in the shortest possible time.
(f) MAC Address
Shows the MAC address of the Wireless USB Network Adapter.
(g) Status
Displays the BSSID (in hexadecimal) of the access point with which the
Adapter
is associated. If you are connected to a network, the word “Associated”
followed
by a series of numbers (the MAC address of the access point) will be
displayed. If
the Adapter is scanning for a network, you will see the word “Scanning”.
(h) Signal Strength
Displays the strength of the wireless signal from 0 to 100%. The closer
to 100%,
the better the signal strength is. The closer you are to a wireless router
or access
point, the stronger the signal should be.
