  Advanced Setup
  --------------
  The EA201 driver configures the adapter card to operate in half duplex
  mode by default.  In this mode, the card must connect to 10M Hub device.
  when you need to configure the card to operate at full duplex mode.
  The following procedure guides you into the Windows 95 or Windows 98
  system for this setting.

  1.  In Control Panel, open "Network".

  2.  Click on the "NETGEAR EA201 ..." adapter selection and the
      "Properties" button.

  3.  Click on the "Advanced" tab in the EA201 card window.

  4.  Click on the "Duplex Mode" property selection.

  5.  The "Value" windows will show the following possible selections:

        Half Duplex     ; for 10M Hub device only.
        Full Duplex     ; for 10M switch device in full duplex mode only.

      Choose the appropriate setting as needed.

      Caution: Unless necessary, do not modify the NetworkAddress field.
      The driver will use the default unique Ethernet address contained in
      the serial ROM on the adapter.
