I have found that between a rather old PC and a RCX I cannot use quad speed
transfer of data as the RCX cannot keep up.  When a different (faster) PC
and the same RCX I can use quad speed transfer.  I guess it comes down to
protocol
timing.  LNP does not use full hand shaking for data transfer, so use the
slower data transfer.

using quad speed LNP for downloading programs to my 1.0 RCX for some time, and
never had a problem.  Recently I'd bowored a friends 1.0 RCX so that my bot
could have two RCXs.  I had the two of them talking over LNP at quad speed and
things seemed to be working well.  I then decided to buy myself a second RCX,
when I swaped in my new 1.5 RCX I was able to download the legOS firmware and
my program at quad speed but found that quad speed communications between the
two RCXs was very very unreliable.
