Setting LavaPort Data Rates in Windows

The data rate of the LavaPort may be set using the Bits per Second pull down menu.

Please note that this menu will also appear when setting the“Port Properties”in any communications application, and may have to be set independently of your Control Panel settings. Control Panel settings may not necessarily be linked to those of your Communications Application. For example, Port speeds in Dial-Up Networking are controlled independently of speed settings in Device Manager.

For optimum performance, always verify that your LavaPort is set to the maximum speed supported by your modem, and that both speed settings are the same in every application.

Please note that the setting of Communications Port Data Rates is often the most confusing of tasks encountered by modem users. For this reason, Lava has included the Lava Modem Speed Set utility in the Utils subdirectory of your LavaPort diskette. Lava strongly recommends using this utility for all LavaPort-to-modem connections.
