	             Broadcom 440x 10/100 Integrated Controller Ethernet Driver
                                                for
                                              DOS ODI

For use on PCs running DOS version 6.22 only. 

To use to login to a Novell Netware Server use the Novell ZENWorks Starter Pack
to setup and configure your PC.

To login to NETBEUI/NDIS environments please use Novell's ODINSUP.COM protocol
as a link between the B44 DOS ODI driver and the NETBEUI/NDIS protocols.

CUSTOM KEYWORDS for net.cfg:

BUSNUM 
DEVNUM
MODEL
LINESPEED
DUPLEX


BUSNUM:

This decimal parameter, range from 0-255, specifies the PCI bus number on which the
ethernet controller is located.

DEVNUM:

This decimal parameter, range from 0-31, specifies the PCI device number assigned
to the ethernet controller.

LINESPEED:

This decimal parameter, 10 or 100, specifies the speed of the network connection.

DUPLEX:

This string parameter, HALF or FULL, specifies duplex mode on the ethernet controller.
The Linespeed parameter must be set when this keyword is used. If neither the Duplex
nor the Linespeed paramaters are specified the ethernet controller will default to
autonegotiate mode.

MODEL:

This decimal parameter is for loading the driver only on the first NIC found
that has a sub-vendor ID (SVID) that matches the one set in MODEL. The driver
will ignore all other NICs that do not have a matching SVID.


NOTE: The first two keywords are used concurrently and have been included for 
      manufacturing purposes.  Do not use them unless you are familiar with PCI
      device configuration.
      These three keywords are needed if multiple boards are on a system 
      and (a) specific adapter/s need to be loaded in specific order.

A PCI device scan utility is needed to find this info.
The values are in decimal.

Example:
	if a PCI scan utility displays card 1 at bus 4 and device 11(hex) and
	card 3 at bus 3 device 13 hex then the following would be put into net.cfg
	to load card 3 first and optionally load card 1 second:


	LINK DRIVER B44
		BUSNUM 3
		DEVNUM 19 (13 hex = 19 decimal)
	LINK DRIVER B44
		BUSNUM 4
		DEVNUM 17 (11 hex = 17 decimal)


The driver will always load on the first device detected when these keywords are
not used.

Example:
	
	LINK DRIVER B44
                MODEL 5348


Example of the use of these key words:

	LINK DRIVER B57
                BUSNUM 3
		DEVNUM 13 ( 13 hex = 19 decimal)
		LINESPEED 100
                DUPLEX FULL

How To Update Drivers Manually

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.
