MEDIA_TYPE = NWAY ;Specify adapter's medium which identifys ;adapter's speed and duplex mode. ; MEDIA_TYPE = NWAY auto negotiation mode ; MEDIA_TYPE = TX10 force 10M/HalfDuplex mode ; MEDIA_TYPE = TX10FD force 10M/HalfDuplex mode ; MEDIA_TYPE = TX100 force 100M/HalfDuplex mode ; MEDIA_TYPE = TX100FD force 100M/HalfDuplex mode There are several parameters included in the ACCND2_NIF section of the PROTOCOL.INI file. However, the only parameter that you should specify is the "drivername." If you change other parameter settings, such as the TX100FD, make sure that it matches the hardware setting. Otherwise, the adapter may fail. If you don't specify these settings, the NDIS/2 driver will automatically detect them.Download Driver Pack
