How to set speed on IEEE1394 for SBP2 devices ??

How do I set MAXIMUM speed for IEEE1394 host-interface for
SBP2 - devices under Win2K/WinXP ??

I need to limit it to S100(100Mbit), not matter what the
devices is capable doing.

Is there a registry-entry to handle this ??

Hello,

Thank you for your post.

IEEE 1394 is a high speed connection standard for peripheral devices. Based
on my research, there is no such registry settings on the operating system
side for us to limit the maximum speed for the IEEE 1394 SBP2 devices. I
have also discussed this problem with several colleagues. We think that the
only solution may be developing a new device driver. Frankly speaking, this
should be quite complicated.

Thank you!

Hello Joe

Thanks for replying.

Calls are available in the driver to set the speed via a
API.
But it doesn't seem to work easy....

It really bothers me, that Linux can do it load of sbp2 -
module ......

OK.

Thought you might be running
a third-part device...

If there's an API exposed, you can likely write a small
..NET app with a few radio buttons to control it...

it's likely not set in the Registry as it appears, per your description,
that it can be adjusted programmatically and dynamically,
while things that have settings in the Registry generally read
them once during boot up and then are "stuck" there.
