Automatic installation using the Network Setup Program 1. Select the Control Panel icon. 2. Select the Network Program. 3. Select <Adapter> option. 4. Select <Remove> to remove the old adapter. 5. Select <Add> to add the Pnp Ethernet Card with RP-1621 adapter. 6. Inserts the driver diskette to drive A:. 7. Select <Unlisted or Updated Network Adapter> and follow the Windows for Workgroups instructions, installing the driver from A:\NDIS2. B. Manual Installation for Windows for Workgroups. (Not recommended if you are using Windows for Workgroups 3.11) 1. Preinstall WFW using the included Novell NE2000 compatible driver. WFW will generate a default PROTOCOL.INI and CONFIG.SYS file using the selected NE2000 network driver. 2. You must modify the generated PROTOCOL.INI and CONFIG.SYS files using any text editor. (i.e. MSDOS EDIT) --------- modify PROTOCOL.INI ---------- 3. The PROTOCOL.INI file will have multiple references to the "ms$ne2clone" name. Change all occurences of this name to "RP1621". In a standard PROTOCOL.INI, there should be a total of 7 replacements. There would be 4 replacements in the [network.setup] section. Please take note of the following lines in [network.setup] section, netcard=... lana0=... lana1=... There will be a [ms$ne2clone] section. This should also be changed to [RP1621]. In both [MS$NETBEUI] and [MS$IPX] sections, there will be a BINDINGS= command line. The BINDINGS command must be bound to "RP1621". 4. There will also be a reference to "ms2000$" in the [RP1621] section which needs to be changed to the RP1621$. The succeeding pages include working sample of CONFIG.SYS and PROTOCOL.INI files for WFW using Pnp Ethernet adapter. --------- modify CONFIG.SYS ---------- 5. Your CONFIG.SYS will have the following statement for loading the "NE2000.DOS" device driver. DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\NE2000.DOS Change this line to load the RP1621 NDIS device driver : DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\RP1621.DOS C. RP1621 NDIS PROTOCOL.INI User Guide This guide lists the available PROTOCOL.INI keywords for RP1621 NDIS device drivers. Most of the keywords are optional and have default values. IOBASE - This keyword specifies the base I/O port address used by the RP1621. INTERRUPT - This keyword specifies the interrupt line used by the RP1621. DRIVERNAME- This keyword specifies the NIC driver's name. The NIC driver name follows the NIC adapter type. (i.e. RP1621) ADAPTERID - This keyword specifies the adapter ID used by RP1621. D.
