General Notes
-------------
Several network operating systems use a standard 2.0.1 version NDIS
driver to talk to the network adapter. The PRO/100 S
adapter's NDIS driver conforms to the Microsoft NDIS 2.0.1
specification.
The NDIS subdirectory on the Configuration and Drivers disk contains the
files needed to use the adapter card with one of these operating
systems. The files and their purpose are listed below.
E100B.DOS: NDIS driver for DOS workstations.
E100B.OS2: NDIS driver for servers & OS/2 workstations.
E100BEDS.NIF: The Extended Network Information file (NIF) that IBM LAN
Support uses during its installation process. Specify the
\DOS directory when installing so the installation
procedure will find the correct NIF file.
E100BEO2.NIF: The Extended Network Information file (NIF) that IBM OS/2
uses during its installation process. Specify the \OS2
directory when installing so the installation procedure
will find the correct NIF file.
PROTOCOL.INI: A fragment of the general PROTOCOL.INI file. This
fragment contains information specific to the PRO/100 S
adapter. Be sure your file contains this fragment. Some
installation procedures create this file for you. This
file is provided as an example of what the PRO/100 S
adapter section could look like.
OEMSETUP.INF: The version located in the \DOS subdirectory on the
driver disk is used by IBM's LAN requester for DOS
version 4.0.
Hints and Tips
--------------
Parameters for the PROTOCOL.INI file are in the Advanced Settings
section.
*** *** *** *** *** ***
ADVANCED SETTINGS
=================
DRIVERNAME: (required) If you have a single adapter, use the syntax
in the Sample Configuration File section. If you are installing
multiple adapters, each adapter must have a unique driver name.
Additional instances of the driver would be referenced by
DRIVERNAME=E100Bx$, where "x" is a unique number 2 through 9.
SPEED: (optional; parameters are [Auto / 10 / 100]) The parameter
disables Auto-Speed Detect and causes the adapter to function at
the speed indicated. If the FORCEDUPLEX parameter is assigned to
either 1 or 2, the SPEED parameter is required because auto-speed
sensing is disabled if the duplex mode is forced. Auto-negotiate
devices cannot detect speed changes in this configuration until
the driver is reloaded. [Example: SPEED=100]
FORCEDUPLEX: Full duplex and auto-negotiate capabilities vary between
the PRO/100 TX and the PRO/100 T4 adapters.
PRO/100+ TX adapter: Supports auto-negotiate, full
and half duplex at 10 or 100 Mbps.
PRO/100B T4 adapter: Supports full and half duplex
at 10 Mbps; supports only half duplex at 100 Mbps. Auto-
negotiate is not a valid option at either speed.
This parameter disables Auto-Negotiate capability and forces the
adapter to operate in Half or Full Duplex mode. The SPEED
parameter must be specified and must be valid if the default of
Auto-negotiate is changed. Options for FORCEDUPLEX are Auto (for
auto-negotiate), 1 (for half), 2 (for full).
[Example: FORCEDUPLEX = 2]
SLOT: (required for multiple adapters) This parameter is optional if
only one adapter is present. If it is specified but is incorrect,
a message indicates that the value doesn't match the configuration
but the driver finds the adapter and loads anyway.
This parameter is required if more than one adapter is present in
either one bus or multiple PCI buses of a system. The parameter
tells the driver which adapter it controls. The SLOT number is the
encoded value of the PCI adapter's device location. To determine
the slot number, load the driver with only the DRIVERNAME
parameter specified. The driver reports all the slots that have
PCI adapter(s) installed. You can determine which card is in which
slot by using SETUP.EXE and matching the Ethernet addresses of the
adapter to the device number specified in View Configuration.
[Example: SLOT=0x1C]
NODE: (optional) This value sets the adapter's Individual Address,
overriding the value read from the adapter EEprom. The address
must consist of 12 hexadecimal digits, enclosed in double quotes.
The value can not be all zeros. The value can not have the
Multicast bit set. So, use only the hexadecimal digits 2, 6, A, or
E as the second digit of the twelve required in the NODE ADDRESS
parameter. Use any hexadecimal digits in all other positions.
[Example: NODE ="02AA00123456"]

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.
