4.  INSTALLATION NOTES

4.1 Standard Installation
    Please refer to the 'Getting Started Guide' or 'User's
    Guide' that came with your product.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

5.  TECHNICAL CONSTRAINTS

5.1 Compatibility with Station Functions Firmware on the Card.
    This version of the driver requires the Station Functions
    firmware on the Card to be version 6.04 or higher.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

6.  KNOWN ISSUES

6.1 I/O Port conflicts under MS-Windows 95.

    When your "RoamAbout" Card's installation completed successfully,
    but it does not become operational (Client Manager reports 
    ""RoamAbout" card not operational"), you are advised to try a
    different I/O Port value. The Windows Resource Manager does
    not always detect a conflict. This problem has been noticed
    under Windows 95 OSR 0.

6.2 "RoamAbout" Add/Edit profile does not appear upon installation

    The "RoamAbout" driver requires Common Control DLL's 4.0 or later.

    You can resolve this error by either:
    * Installing Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or later. 
    * (Re-)installing the latest Client Manager
    * Run the patch comupd50.exe provided on the RoamAbout Disk.
