I have a Notebook that uses “FAST IrDA” (4mbps) and my motherboard only supports standard “IrDA” (115.2kbps). Can I still connect using the Infrared Drive ?

One of the great things about using IrDA devices is they are fully compatible whether or not the two communicating devices’ top speed is the same or not. Once connected, both infrared devices will talk to each other and go to the fastest speed possible (in this case 115.2kbps).
