                      ---------------------------
         Driver Installation for Microsoft Windows for Workgroups 3.11
         -------------------------------------------------------------

  Getting Started
  ---------------
  If desired, the duplex mode of the EA201 adapter card can also be
  modified using the included SETUP.EXE program in the root directory.
  For more detail, please refer to the SETUP.TXT file in the \HELP
  directory.


  Installation Procedure
  ----------------------
  1.  In Program Manager, open "Network" -> "Network Setup" -> "Drivers".

  2.  In "Network Drivers" window, select "Add Adapter".

  3.  When installing the LAN driver, Windows for Workgroups will present
      a list of all available drivers.  But the NETGEAR EA201 drivers
      are not included in the system software (the EA201.386, EA201.DOS
      and EA201.COM driver programs). Select "Unlisted" for 3rd party
      adapters not in the driver list.

  4.  Windows for Workgroups will ask for the drive/path containing the
      EA201 drivers.  Provide the path to the OEMSETUP.INF file in the
      \WFW311 directory.

        eg. A:\WFW311 if installing from the provided driver disk.

      Windows for Workgroups should copy the appropriate drivers to the
      Windows for Workgroups system.

  5.  Select the "NETGEAR EA201 Ethernet Card".

      At this point, the drivers have been properly copied and the
      installation would proceed to the next step.  Please refer to
      your Windows for Workgroups installation guide for the correct
      procedures.

      After the initial installation, the EA201 drivers will be
      permanently installed into the Windows for Workgroups system.
      Subsequent accesses to the network driver list will include these
      drivers as options.
