Description
Configures the threshold value at which Offline Files considers a network connection to be "slow". Any network speed below this value is considered to be slow.
When a connection is considered slow, Offline Files automatically adjust its behavior to avoid excessive synchronization traffic and will not automatically reconnect to a server when the presence of a server is detected.
If you enable this setting, you can configure the threshold value that will be used to determine a slow network connection.
If this setting is disabled or not configured, the default threshold value of 64,000 bps is used to determine if a network connection is considered to be slow.
Note: Use the following formula when entering the slow link value: [ bps / 100]. For example, if you want to set a threshold value of 128,000 bps, enter a value of 1280.
