----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks for choosing the Fast Ethernet 10/100 PC Card. Before
attempting to install the card, we highly recommend that you read
the User Guide that came with your card in order to install both your
PCMCIA socket & card services AND your network driver.
Regular Setup
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Follow the steps below to install the Fast Ethernet 10/100 PC Card for
use with Windows for Workgroups. Make sure that
your computer's PCMCIA services have already been
installed before you proceed.
1. In the Windows Program Manager, open the
Network group. Double-click on the Network Setup
icon. Click on the Networks button. Select Install
Microsoft Network, then click OK.
2. Click on the Sharing button. Check the appropriate
I want... buttons to give others access to your files
and printers. When you're finished, click OK.
3. Click on the Drivers button. Choose Add Adapter,
followed by Unlisted or Updated Network
Adapter. Click OK.
4. Put the PC Card driver disk into drive A. When asked
to supply the path to the disk, type a:\ and press
Enter. When Network Everywhere Fast Ethernet 10/100 PC Card
appears in the window, click OK.
5. When the Network Drivers window reappears, click
on close. The Network Setup window will reappear.
Double-click on the adapter. Verify that the IRQ
and other settings are correct. The settings you
choose should be the same settings that were chosen
when you installed your PCMCIA socket & card
services. For more information about IRQ and
memory I/O settings, see page 8. When finished,
click OK.
6. Enter your user name, the workgroup name, and the
computer name. If you don't know what these are,
see your Window user guide or contact your network
administrator. When finished, click OK. Note: the
workgroup name must be correct or your PC won't
be able to see any of the other computers in the
workgroup.
7. Windows will copy necessary network files to your
computer. When asked to restart your PC, choose to
do so. After Windows restarts, be sure to log in.
Look at the PC Card's cable coupler. If your cabling
is properly attached and the network is detected, the
green Link and Activity lights will be on, and both the
lights will be flickering or solid. The Link light is for
use with Link and Frame received. The Activity light is
for use with Power On and Frame Transmitted. The third
amber light is for use with 100BaseTX indication.
The installation is complete. You can now access the
network at large through the Windows File Manager.
If You Have Problems
If you don't see the card's LEDs light up, you should:
1. Check your cabling.
2. Verify that your PC has socket and card services
installed
3. Try changing the IRQ value that the PC Card is
using. To do this, double-click on the Network
Setup icon in the Program Manager. Double-click
on Fast Ethernet 10/100 PC Card. Make sure that
the settings are correct. Change any as necessary.
