Supported Environments ---------------------- The following driver types are included with this release: -NDIS3 Driver for Microsoft Windows NT (Ver. 3.51, 4.0), Windows 95, and Windows 98 (CEM56.SYS) -NDIS4 Driver for Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 95 (OSR2), and Windows 98(CEM56N4.SYS) -NDIS3 Driver for Microsoft Windows NT (Ver 4.0) and Softex or Phoenix Card and Socket Services (CEM56NT.SYS) -32 bit Novell .LAN driver and installation support file for use in a Netware server environment (XCEM.LAN, XCEM.LDI). -OS/2 ODI Driver (XCEMODI.OS2) -OS/2 NDIS2 Driver (XCEMNDIS.OS2) -DOS ODI Driver (XCEMODI.COM) -DOS NDIS2 Driver (XCEMNDIS.EXE) -Packet Driver (XCEMPD.COM) -Diagnostic test program (XCEMTEST.EXE) -Modem test program (MDMTESTW.EXE) -Modem Enabler (CMENABLE.COM) Note: Documentation regarding unattended installations in Windows NT 4 is no longer included in this release. Please download 'XIRCUNAT.EXE' from the utilites section on Xircom's web site at www.xircom.com. The following features are available in this release: -An NDIS4 Compliant Driver (CEM56N4.SYS) for use with Windows NT 4.0, Windows 95 (OSR2), and Windows 98. This driver is located in the NDIS4 subdirectory on the Windows 95/98/NT Installation Disk. NOTE: The first release of Windows 95 (which is normally referred to as Windows 95 "Retail" or Windows 95A) does not support the NDIS4 driver. In this environment, the NDIS3 driver (CEM56.SYS) located in the root directory on the Windows 95/98/NT Installation Disk must be used. -Support for several third-party Card and Socket Service software packages for Windows NT 4.0 has been included with this release. Refer to section 3, "Card and Socket Services in Windows NT 4.0" for more information. -OS/2 ODI and NDIS2 drivers -This release contains a resolution for TCP/IP problems that occur when the same network is accessed via a LAN connection and then subsequently via a remote dial-up connection in Windows 95/98. Typically, when the computer is connected to the network via the LAN, routing tables are constructed that direct packets intended for the network to the LAN interface. If the computer is then used remotely and an attempt is made to connect to the same network via dial-up networking, these packets may not be routed to the dial-up interface, because the presence of the active LAN interface results in the system's continuing to route packets to it instead. In such instances, the simplest solution is to remove the LAN interface from the computer. However, in the case of a multi- function adapter, this solution cannot be used. The drivers included with this release support a configuration keyword named "DynamicLinkDetect" to overcome this difficulty. The value of this keyword (ON or OFF) can be set by going to Control Panel/Network/Network of Xircom.../Properties/Advanced. The default value is ON. The activity governed by this keyword operates as follows: ON - The ethernet interface is always active once the adapter is initialized by the driver. An ethernet cable need not be connected to the port at boot time for the network side of the adapter to initialize. If the cable is plugged in later, or unplugged and then re-connected, the adapter will dynamically detect the presence of the link and connect to the LAN. This is the setting recommended unless the symptoms described above are encountered. OFF - The ethernet interface will only be initialized by the driver if an active connection to the network is present at boot time. If the presence of an active link is not detected, the ethernet portion of the card will shut down. As a result the OS will "assume" that the interface is not present, and no packets will be routed to it. As a result, the IP routing trouble discussed previously should be eliminated. V.90 configuration and use information - S109 register ------------------------------------------------------ Current released firmware for Xircom 56K modem products now includes support for the v.90 56K modem standard. This firmware is designed to initially attempt to make a v.90 connection, and then fall back to K56flex if the host being dialed does not support v.90. However, the host being dialed must support v.90 autodetect in order for a v.90 connection to be initiated by default. At this point in time, many v.90 hosts do not yet support autodetect. In such cases, it will be necessary to issue an ATS109=2 command to the modem in order to force a v.90 connection. Please note that if this command is used and a v.90 connection is not achieved, the modem will fall back directly to v.34. When S109=2, fall back from v.90 to K56Flex is disabled. To set this value back to the default, issue an ATS109=1 command. In summary, the values of this register and the resultant behavior are: S109=1 (default) - Negotiates initially at v.90 if host supports v.90 autodetect. If host does not support v.90 autodetect or does not support v.90 at all, will negotiate back to K56flex. S109=2 - Forces v.90 for PCM connects. If host does not support v.90, falls directly back to v.34. Changing the value of the S109 register can be implemented via the following means: -When using a terminal emulator program, enter ATS109=n (where n is the value desired). -To implement with Windows 95/98/NT dial up networking, go to Control Panel\Modems. Highlight the Xircom modem and click Properties. Click Connection\Advanced. Enter S109=n (where n is the value desired) in the Extra Settings box. Known Limitations ----------------- -With this release, use of ODI drivers (.ODI or .LAN) with Novell's Client32 in 32 bit environments (Windows 95/98, Windows NT) is no longer supported. The XCEMLAN.INF file (previously located in the \LAN subdirectory), which was used to support the XCEM.LAN driver on these platforms has been removed. Novell is no longer supporting these driver types in these environments. However, the XCEM.LAN and XCEM.LDI files are still provided in the \LAN subdirectory to support use in a Novell Netware Server environment if that is desired. -In order to achieve 56Kbps connects (v.90 or K56flex), there can be only one digital to analog conversion between the connecting modems. Also, the modems at both ends of the call must be 56K compatible to achieve 56K speeds; otherwise a standard V.34 connection (maximum 33.6Kpbs) will be negotiated. Current FCC regulations limit download speeds of the modem to 53Kbps. -Full-duplex Ethernet transmission is only supported on 10Mbps networks. This feature is only available when the Adapter is connected to switched full-duplex 10Mbps Ethernet hubs. -In order to connect to a 100Base-TX Ethernet network, Category 5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) network cable terminating in a male RJ-45 connector must be connected to a 100Mbps hub or switch. Check with your LAN Administrator if you are not certain of your network speed and infrastructure. -Under OEM Service Release Version 2 of Win95 (OSR2), the multi- function parent device may be displayed under the Modem category in addition to the modem device. The modem device string is: "Modem of Xircom 10-100+56". The other device listed represents the parent multifunction device. -When using QmodemPro in DOS with XCEMODI.COM in SHAREIRQ mode, modem performance will be slow. Xircom recommends using MODE IO to improve performance. -Using Windows NT 4.0 with Microsoft Service Pack 1 may cause some portable PCs to lock up on Shutdown or Restart. Updating to Microsoft Service Pack 3 resolves this issue. -When installing on some notebooks under Windows NT 4.0 with Microsoft Service Pack 4, a library procedure error associated with the GetPCMCIAConfig procedure may be encountered. If this occurs use of Service Pack 3 is advised. -If you experience intermittent times where the modem will not respond to an AT Command while running CMENABLE.COM on a portable that uses the TI1130 PCMCIA Controller, run XCEMTEST and choose the test function to determine the IRQ the card is using and run CMENABLE COMIRQ=x where x is the IRQ determined by XCEMTEST. See the User's Guide for additional information on using XCEMTEST. -The COM Port Monitor Utility (XCOMMON) must be launched prior to any communication applications in order for it to function. -In Windows 95 or Windows 98, the REM56G or CEM56 is configured to install the modem at I/O address 02E8 on COM4 by default. In some computers, other hardware or virtual ports are already installed that are using these resources in some manner, and the presence of these devices will cause the modem to install on COM5. Some applications may not be able to access the modem in such cases. In order to correct this and move the modem to a conventional COM port location (COM1 through COM4), try the following: Solution 1 If your computer contains an Infra-red serial port or a standard serial port that is not being used, disable this device in both the computer's system BIOS and in Windows via the Device Manager. Then reboot the computer. In many cases, Windows will then re- assign the modem to the resources that are now open (typically I/O address 02F8, COM2) and the situation will be corrected. Solution 2 If you are unable to disable such devices or Windows fails to re-assign the port used, try the following: 1. Go to the Device Manager. Locate the "Multifunction Parent" device entry for the REM56G or CEM56 (this may be located in either the Modems group or the Multifunction Adapters group). Double click this entry. 2. Click the Resources tab. Uncheck the box labeled "Use Automatic Settings". 3. Note the Basic Configuration number the adapter is assigned to (in most cases this will be 0000). Choose a different Basic Configuration number to assign the modem to the port desired according to the following scheme: Basic Configuration 0005 - I/O address 03E8, COM3 Basic Configuration 0006 - I/O address 02F8, COM2 Basic Configuration 0007 - I/O address 03F8, COM1 We have found the first choice (0005, 03E8, COM3) to be the best selection in most instances. 4. Once the new configuration is selected, click OK. A warning message will be displayed indicating you have made manual changes and asking if you wish to continue. Click Yes. After a few seconds, the modem will be assigned to the new settings and the problem should be corrected. -On some computers running Windows NT 4.0, if NT networking functionality has not already been installed, lockup and/or "blue screen" symptoms may be encountered when installing the REM56G or CEM56 adapter along with networking. This has been observed primarily on computers that support CardBus. The following workarounds for this situation have been found to be successful: Solution 1 Perform the installation of Windows NT networking WITHOUT the REM56G or CEM56 adapter in the computer. Assign resources that are appropriate for your computer. Once the installation process has completed, shut down the computer and insert the REM56G or CEM56 adapter in the computer and then reboot. Solution 2 When initially installing networking, choose the "MS Loopback Adapter" from the adapter list instead of installing the REM56G or CEM56 at this time. Once networking is installed, reboot the computer, remove the "MS Loopback Adapter" from the configuration, and install the REM56G or CEM56 according to the instructions in your User's Guide. Solution 3 In some cases, it is necessary to install the REM56G or CEM56 while installing networking for the purposes of joining a Domain. This is true in the case of an unattended installation to an NT domain server. In such cases, Xircom recommends obtaining the latest version of PCMCIA.SYS from Microsoft. Rename the existing PCMCIA.SYS located in the \I386 directory. Copy the updated version to the \I386 directory. See the On-Line Help file for additional information. In a case in which Windows NT has already been installed but networking has not and the need exists to join a domain in this manner, overwrite the PCMCIA.SYS file that currently exists in the \%systemroot%\system32\drivers directory with the new one. You should then be able to install the REM56G or CEM56 while installing networking without difficulty. -With CEM56, the following devices are known to have performance issues at 100Mbps when using the RJ45 connector with the CEM56-100BC cable (CABLE-MOD212): -NETWORTH - SERIES 1000 100BASE-TX CLASS II REPEATER -COMPAQ - NETELLIGENT 1108 100BASE-T CLASS II REPEATER -ASANTE - PLUG-AND-PLAY 100TX HUB /12 -BAY NETWORKS - BAY STACK 100BASE-T (without CE Mark, version with CE Mark works fine) -PCMCIA adapters may feel hot to the touch after prolonged periods of normal use in some environments. This is normal and is not known to affect operation of the Xircom card, the host computer, or any other peripheral device. However, to avoid discomfort, use caution when removing the card from your computer after extended use (see your computer manual for removal procedures). 3) CARD AND SOCKET SERVICES IN WINDOWS NT 4.0 ========================================== With this release, full functionality with several types of Windows NT third-party Card and Socket Services software is now available. Supported packages include: Phoenix CardExecutive versions 2.18 and above Softex versions 2.18 and above SystemSoft CardWizard versions 4.0 and above The following items and instructions are pertinent when installing in these environments: -If Windows NT Service Pack 4 is installed, the file NDIS.SYS (located in the WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS directory) may need to be replaced with the NDIS.SYS file included with Service Pack 3. This is known to be an issue with SystemSoft Card Wizard. -The Phoenix CardExecutive and Softex packages require the use of a special set of drivers for the Xircom adapter. These drivers are located in the \CEMNT subdirectory on the Xircom CD-ROM. The installation procedure for these drivers differs somewhat from the standard Windows NT installation procedure described in the Xircom help documents. To install the adapter with Phoenix CardExecutive or Softex, perform the following steps: Caution: Do not insert the Xircom CD-ROM until instructed to do so in step 3. 1. With Windows NT 4.0 running, connect cables and insert the RealPort Ethernet 10/100+Modem 56 into the PC Card slot. The "PCMCIA Card Not Configured" screen will appear. 2.
