Show 128-bit Warning – This option will display a message box warning you, when
configuring the EC, to use a 128-bit WEP Encryption key.
Show IP Address Warning – This option will display a message box when a user tries
to configure an EC for an IP address that is out of the subnet of the Host computer
running the Client Manager. The message will be telling the user of this difference in
subnets. There are plenty of instances where this is a legal configuration, so the
warning message can be turned off by clearing this button.
Ethernet (Figure 3.4)
Ethernet Mode – This option allows you to change the data rate of the local Ethernet
port (10 Mbps, Half Duplex is the default setting).
PC Card (Figure 3.5)
PC Card Connection Speed – This option allows you to change the data rate of the
EC’s internal 802.11(b) PCMCIA Card. The rates available will change according to
the distance selected. “Auto” will change the speed of the card “on the fly” as different
communication characteristics change (up to 11 Mbps).
Antenna Selection – This option (only available for the Design-In model) allows the
user to select which antenna port on the 802.11(b) PCMCIA Card to use.
