Power Saving Mode
The Power Saving Mode option is designed to conserve battery
life of you computer. Selecting the “Enable” button activates the
Power Save mode and your SMC2642W 11Mbps Wireless
Compact Flash Card will go into sleep mode to minimize power
consumption.
NOTE : When power saving mode is enabled, the Access Points
you use need to support power saving as well so that the com-
munication can be established.
TX Rate
The 11Mbps Wireless Compact Flash Card provides various data
rate options for you to select.
Data rates options include Fully Auto, Fixed 1Mb/s, Fixed 2Mb/s,
Auto Select 1M or 2M, Fixed 5.5Mb/s, and Fixed 11Mb/s. In most
networking scenarios, you will see that the factory-set default
“Fully Auto” will prove the most efcient. This setting will allow
your 11Mbps Wireless LAN Compact Flash Card to operate at the
maximum data rate. When the communications quality drops
below a certain level, the Wireless LAN Compact Flash Card will
automatically switch to a lower data rate. Transmission at lower
data speed is usually more reliable. However, when the
communications quality improves again, the Wireless LAN
Compact Flash Card will gradually increase the data rate again,
until it has reached the highest available transmit rate.
