The data transfer speed is slow.
❑ The Wireless LAN data transfer speed is affected by distance and
obstructions between devices and access points. Other factors include device
configurations, radio conditions, and software compatibility. To maximize
the data transfer speed, move your computer away from obstructions or
closer to any Access Point you may be using.
❑ If you are using a Wireless LAN Access Point, the device may be
temporarily overloaded depending on the number of other devices
communicating via the access point.
The communication speed is interrupted or slowed down
when MPEG2 data is transferred.
The typical effective data transfer speed via an access point is 4-5 Mbps when
adhering to the IEEE802.11b standard. High-rate stream transfers with MPEG2
data may lower this rate.
The IBSS Ad-hoc mode channel is different from the one I
specified.
If the second computer in a “Peer-to-Peer Group” wireless connection specifies a
different setting from the first computer, the settings from the first computer take
priority.
The settings cannot be saved in “Edit Configuration,” even
when I enter the encryption key with “Use hexadecimal.”
The setting “Use Alphanumeric Characters” may be checked on the display, but
the settings with “Use hexadecimal” will be saved.
The computer connects automatically to a Wireless LAN
Access Point.
If the Wireless LAN Access Point security setting is not specified at the factory,
the access point may connect automatically upon installation. This is a factory
specification and not a malfunction.
