***************************************************************************** * * * ISA PnP Ethernet Adapter * * * * 32 Bit ODI Driver for Client32 in DOS/Windows 3.x * * * * V. 3.63, Jan. 1997 * * * ***************************************************************************** Introduction: ============= The Ethernet ODI Driver for DOS workstations confirms to the Novell Open Data-Link Interface (ODI) specification. This document shows you how to setup the driver and how to use the enhanced functions by setting the custom keywords in configuration file. Contents of the Subdirectory: ============================= PNPODI.COM The ODI driver for DOS workstations. PNPODI.INS The installation information file. PNPNWSRV.LAN The 32 Bit ODI driver for Client32 in DOS/Windows 3.x. PNPNWSRV.LDI The installation information file. CNT32DOS.TXT This file. Installation: ============= Before starting with the installation process, make sure that the adapter is properly installed and configured. You can use the diagnostic program (A:\SETUP.EXE) in DOS mode to make sure your connection with the network is correct. Install Driver While setting up your Client32: ---------------------------------------------- While you are installing Client32 programs, please have this driver diskette diskette of the adapter near you. 1. When the Installation program ask you to specify a lan driver, please select " USER SPECIFIED 32BIT Driver " or " OTHER DRIVERS " to install driver from the diskette that come with your lan adapter. 2. Insert the driver diskette into your floppy drive, and specify the path path of the driver in the diskette(i.e.A:\NETWARE\CLIENT32.DOS) to copy the driver files to your system. 3. A STARTNET.BAT file will be generated in the Client32 directory. (\NOVELL\CLIENT32 or other if you change the default path) 4. When all the Client32 programs installation is completed, reboot your PC. System with existing Netware client programs: --------------------------------------------- If there are Client32 programs installed in your system already, you can use the following procedures to setup your driver. 1. Add a Load driver command line to your STARTNET.BAT file in your Client32 directory. For example: LOAD C:\NOVELL\CLIENT32\PNPNWSRV.LAN FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 Note: For PnP mode, you don't have to specify INT and PORT parameters in the command line. The following is a sample of the STARTNET.BAT file: SET NWLANGUAGE=ENGLISH C:\NOVELL\CLIENT32\NIOS.EXE LOAD C:\NOVELL\CLIENT32\LSLC32.NLM LOAD C:\NOVELL\CLIENT32\CMSM.NLM LOAD C:\NOVELL\CLIENT32\ETHERTSM.NLM LOAD C:\NOVELL\CLIENT32\PNPNWSRV.LAN FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 LOAD C:\NOVELL\CLIENT32\PNPNWSRV.LAN FRAME=Ethernet_802.3 LOAD C:\NOVELL\CLIENT32\IPX.NLM LOAD C:\NOVELL\CLIENT32\CLIENT32.NLM 2. Execute STARTNET.BAT to connect to Server. NOTE: ----- Multiple Lan Adapters in a system: If you want to install mutiple lan adapters in a server, you have to use the keyword, PNPID, to let driver locate the right adapter. You can use the diagnostic program ( A:\SETUP.EXE ) in DOS mode to show all the Ethernet addresses of your adapters. For example: LOAD PNPNWSRV PNPID=00002100201A FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=Lan_1 LOAD PNPNWSRV PNPID=00002100201B FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=Lan_2 Configuration Parameters: ========================= Configuration: -------------- You can the LOAD PNPNWSRV.LAN command line parameters to configure the driver. There are special designed functions with this adapter which can accerate the performance. To enable the functions, for example: LOAD C:\NOVELL\CLIENT32\PNPNWSRV.LAN FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 EARLYRECEIVE Custom Paremeters: ------------------ EARLYTRANSMIT This keyword is used to enable turbo transmission mode for accelerating data transmission. EARLYRECEIVE This keyword is used to enable turbo receiption mode for accelerating data receiption. FULLDUPLEX This keyword is used to enable fullduplex mode. PNPID = hhhhhhhhhhhh This property is the Ethernet Address of the adapter you want to drive. If there are more than one ethernet adapters in your system,you have to use this property to let driver locate the right adapter. However, you do not have to use this this property or let the value to be zero (i.e. PNPID = 0) if there is only one adapter in your system. -------------------------------- End of File ---------------------------------Download Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
