LABEL DESCRIPTION
Adapter Setting
Transfer Rate In most networking scenarios, the factory default Fully Auto setting is the most
efficient and allows your M-302 to operate at the highest possible transfer (data)
rate.
If you want to select a specific transfer rate, select one that the AP or peer wireless
device supports.
Note: Super G
The Super G technology works with IEEE 802.11 a/b/g
products. It doubles IEEE 802.11g performance by bonding
two 54Mbps channels and allowing larger frames to be sent.
Your M-302 can transmit at up to 108 Mbps when connected
to an AP or wireless router with the Super G feature enabled.
Preamble Type Preamble is used to signal that data is coming to the receiver. Select the preamble
type that the AP uses.
Short Preamble increases performance as less time sending preamble means
more time for sending data. All IEEE 802.11b/g compliant wireless adapters
support Long Preamble, but not all support short preamble.
Select Auto to have the M-302 automatically use short preamble when all access
point or wireless stations support it; otherwise the M-302 uses long preamble.
Note: The M-302 and the access point or wireless stations MUST
use the same preamble mode in order to communicate.
Power Saving
Mode
Select Maximum Power Saving or Fast Power Saving to save power (especially
for notebook computers). This forces the M-302 to go to sleep mode when it is not
transmitting data.
When you select Continuous Access Mode, the M-302 will never go to sleep
mode.
Save Click Save to save the changes back to the M-302.
