Accton EN2218 Multi-function PC Card
Driver Support Overview
=======================
(1) To install the DOS/ODI driver you can use the \INSTALL.BAT
program. This program copies the DOS/ODI driver files to
the C:\NWCLIENT directory on the hard disk. A STARTNET.BAT
file is also created. You can use this batch file to logon to
a Novell Netware server from your workstation.
(2) For most network operating systems, each system has its own
driver installation procedure. During installation the system
will ask you to specify the location of the driver files. For
the names of the directories on this diskette that contain the
drivers for the supported operating systems, please refer to the
RELEASE.TXT file.
For example, for the Windows 95 system, when the system detects the
new hardware, it asks you to specify the location of the driver
files. If you insert this driver release diskette in drive A:,
enter "A:\WIN95" in the text box. Windows 95 then searches for all
the required files and installs the driver automatically.
Under each directory there is a README.TXT file. This file
provides more detailed installation information for the
respective operating system.
(3) Under Microsoft DOS, the Card Information Structure (CIS) of this card
identifies itself as a modem card. If you use the Super Client Driver
(generic enabler) to enable EN2218, EN2218 is enabled as a modem
card, and you can use any standard communication software for the modem.
If you do not use the Super Client Driver to enable modem,
you can install one of the drivers included on this diskette.
The DOS/ODI driver, the NDIS2 driver, or the packet driver enables
both the LAN and modem functions. When each of these drivers
initializes, in addition to enable the LAN function, it also
enables a free COM port, and display a message on the screen
to tell you which COM port to use. When you configure the modem
communication software, you have to select this COM port.
(4) Under Microsoft DOS, if you use EMM386.EXE in CONFIG.SYS, please
exclude a range of memory from your system. This space is needed by
the PCMCIA software to read the information stored on EN2218.
Example: DEVICE=EMM386.EXE NOEMS X=D000-DFFF
This statement reserves 64K bytes of memory for the PCMCIA software.
Download Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
