                  Support for Wake On LAN and Utility Program
                  ===========================================


 ****************************************
 *  Software and Hardware Requirements  *
 ****************************************
 For a PC to support a Wake On LAN function, it must have:

 1. ATX Power Supply must be ATX spec. 2.01 compliant that supplies a 720mA
    standby current.

 2. PC should support Wake On LAN function.

    . A 3-pin Wake On LAN power connector on the motherboard.
    . BIOS must support PME event feature.

 3. PCI BUS power voltage should be under 0.8V when PCI BUS power is off.

 4. A NIC should support Wake On LAN function such as PRO120WL(A) 100/10 MBps
    PCI BUS Fast Ethernet Adapter.

    . With a 3-pin Wake On LAN power connector.
    . A Wake On LAN cable.

 5. A desktop or Network Management application that is capable of sending a 
    remote wake up packet or Magic Packet (i.e. Intel LANDesk Client Manager, 
    HP TopTools, MAGIC.EXE, PACKET.EXE, and other utility programs).

    Note: The NIC's power(Auxiliary power interface for auxiliary adapter power
          source) comes from the motherboard by a wire connecting the 2
          connectors, and this wire will supply 5V of power, which the NIC 
          needs to turn on the client.


****************************************
*  Installing Wake On LAN NIC Into PC  *
****************************************

 1. Insert a PRO120WL(A) NIC in a PCI slot on a motherboard.

 2. Attach the Wake On LAN cable to 3-pin connectors on both motherboard and
    the PRO120WL(A) NIC.

 3. Close the PC case and power on the PC.

 4. Go to the BIOS setup program, then to the setting for waking up the PC on 
    PME or LAN signals.(If you don't know how to do this, please refer to your 
    PC's reference manual or contact your PC vendor.)

 5. Install the NIC drivers according to the OS being used.

 6. Use MAGIC.EXE program to set your magic ID.(See next section)
 
 7. Power off your PC.


********************************
*  How To Use Utility Program  *
********************************
The following two programs let you remote wake-up your PC by using the 
PRO120WL(A) adapter.

The first program, MAGIC.EXE, must be run on a PC that you want to respond to
the "Wake Up" command.  To do this, follow the steps as they are listed below:

 1. Insert a NIC into a PCI slot on your PC and plug Wake On LAN cable into 
    both the motherboard and NIC.

 2. Boot your computer to the DOS mode and insert the Driver Diskette into
    drive 'A'.

 3. Run the SETUP.EXE program (REMEMBER - you must record NIC's MAC address).

     A:>SETUP.EXE

 4. Change to the UTILITY sub-directory, then run MAGIC.EXE program.

     A:>CD\UTILITY
     A:>MAGIC

 5. A screen, Your original Magic ID: aa bb cc dd ee ff.  Please enter your
    Magic ID(00 00 ....), will be displayed.

 6. You can enter six sets of the hex. and should record your Magic ID.

 7. The program will show your new Magic ID: xx xx xx xx xx xx.

 8. Power off your PC and plug LAN cable into your device.

    Note: a. Use the default, while you always press "enter".
          b. Please remember the Magic ID.


The other one, PACKET.EXE, should be executed on another PC where you want to
remote wake-up across LAN. Then, follow the steps as below:

 1. Insert the driver diskette into drive 'A'.

 2. Change the directory to PKTDRV, then bring up the driver. (refer to
    pktdrv's README.TXT file)

     A:>CD\PKTDRV
     A:>MX32PD 0x60

 3. Change the directory to UTILITY and run PACKET.EXE program.

     A:>CD\UTILITY
     A:>PACKET

 4. Enter your destination MAC Address that you got from setup program.

 5. Enter the Magic ID that you recorded, then the remote PC can reply to a  
    wake up command.

    Note: Don't forget to install packet driver before running PACKET.EXE
          program.


**************************************
*  Future Standards for Wake On LAN  *
**************************************
The Advanced Configuration and Power Interface(ACPI) standard defines the
different power states of the PC and NIC. Current PCs and BIOS versions use
today's standard which supports only two power states.

The new ACPI standard will require that future operating systems and system
boards support four power states. In order for a full ACPI implementation, one
needs a full ACPI compatible system board (hardware that can implement all four
ACPI power states) as well as a full ACPI Operating System (software which can
manage the four ACPI power states). PCs that fully comply with the new ACPI
power standard are expected to be available in 1999.

Standards are also being developed to simplify the delivery of power to the 
NIC.  The PCI 2.2 will set the standard for how power will be delivered to the
NIC through a single pin in the PCI bus. This implementation will eliminate the
need for the Remote Wake Up cable. The first PCs and NICs that support PCI 2.2
are expected to ship during 1999.

Download Driver Pack

How To Update Drivers Manually

After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.

  • Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).

  • If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.

  • Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.

  • Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.

  • Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.

  • From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.

  • Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.

Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
