Note: If the IrLAN connection only runs at 115Kbps, verify the IR port specifications of your notebook to see what the maximum speed it can support by consulting the documentation that came with your notebook or contacting the manufacturer. If the IR port can only support a maximum of 115Kbs then you cannot upgrade to a higher speed. If the port specification can support Fast-IR (4Mbps), you can continue to use the 115Kbps connection but you should request the IR 4Mb Framer (device driver) from your notebook manufacturer and then update the Framer by performing the steps outlined in “APPENDIX E - Upgrading from 115Kbs to 4Mbs Speeds.”
