to limit the transmission rate. To change this property, go to
the Windows Control Panel, open the Network Connections
and double-click on your wireless card’s connection. In the
properties dialog, select the configure button on the General tab
(Windows 98 users will have to select the wireless card in the list
box and then click properties), then choose the advanced tab and
select the Rate property. Wireless client cards are usually set to
automatically adjust the wireless transmit rate for you, but doing
so can cause periodic disconnects when the wireless signal is
too weak; as a rule, slower transmission rates are more stable.
Experiment with different connection rates until you find the best
one for your environment; note that all available transmission
rates should be acceptable for browsing the Internet. For more
assistance, see your wireless card’s literature.
If issues persist even at close range, please contact please
contact Belkin Technical Support.
