Original Abstract Submitted

examples described herein relate to link training between network connected devices. in some examples, an amount to extend link training is determined. the amount to extend link training can be determined by: receiving, by a receiver in a first device, signals over a lane from a transmitter in a second device, the signals indicating capability to extend link training time and amount to extend link training time; determining, at the first device, a link training time based on a default link training time and an amount to extend link training time; and performing link training based on the determined link training time. in some examples, the determined amount is highest common denominator of the received identified capability and transmitted indicated capability.
