Connect the Network Cable

1Connect a single network cable to the PRO/100B TX PCI adapter as

shown below. For 100BASE-TX, your network cable must be four-pair,

category 5, twisted-pair wiring. If you plan on running the adapter at 100

Mbps, it must be connected to a 100BASE-TX hub (not a 100BASE-T4

hub). For 10BASE-T, use two-pair wiring.

Twisted Pair Ethernet (TPE).

Use category 5 cable and RJ-45

connector for this adapter. Do not

use category 3 wiring. At 100

Mbps, connect to a TX hub, not a

T4 hub. For full duplex, see

instructions on page 11.

100BASE-TX Wiring

NOTE:

For more information on 100BASE-TX wiring requirements and limita-

tions, see page 18 in this guide and refer to the README files on

the installation disk.

2To configure the adapter, continue with the procedures specific to your

operating system on pages 4 through 10:

• DOS and Windows 3.1 users with NetWare, go to page 4

• Windows NT 4.0 and 3.5x users, go to page 6

• Windows 95 users, go to page 8

• Others, go to page 10

DOS and Windows 3.1 Setup for Novell

NetWare Clients

Important Note:

Windows 95 users and Windows NT should skip the

procedure on this page and go directly to page 6 for Windows

NT or page 8 for Windows 95. NetWare Client 32 users, go to

page 10.

Automatic configuration

PCI computers automatically detect and configure PCI-compliant adapters

while booting. The PRO/100B TX PCI adapter IRQ level and I/O memory

address are automatically set by the BIOS each time you start your computer.

Start your computer to automatically configure the adapter. Configuration is

complete when the DOS prompt appears.You can now continue with the

procedure below.

If your computer displays an error while booting, it may require additional

steps to configure a PCI adapter. See the PCI installation tips section on page

17 for more information.

Run Setup to install network drivers

Setup can automatically install NetWare DOS ODI client drivers for you or

display a README file with installation instructions for other NOS drivers.

1If your computer already has network drivers installed, restart the

computer without loading them. If the drivers are loaded from the

AUTOEXEC.BAT or CONFIG.SYS file, type REM in front of each line

that loads a network driver. Or, with DOS 6.x or later press 5 as DOS

starts, to bypass the drivers.

2Insert the Intel Configuration and Drivers disk in a floppy drive, switch

to that drive, and at the DOS prompt, type

SETUP

3If you have more than one Intel PRO series PCI adapter in your

computer, an adapter selection menu appears on the screen. Select the

adapter you want by noting the Ethernet address. See page 11 for more

information on multiple adapters.

4Select Automatic Setup from the Main menu. Then follow the instruc-

tions on the screen. (If you want to test the adapter with a responder on

the network, see the next procedure.)

Setup displays the adapter’s configuration, then runs a series of diagnos-

tic tests that makes sure the adapter and network are functioning

properly. If Setup finds a problem, it displays the results and some

possible solutions.

5When Setup finishes the tests, you’ll see the Install Network Drivers

screen.

6Select the driver you want to install. Setup can install a NetWare client

driver for you. If you’re installing other drivers, Setup displays a

README file with installation instructions.

Troubleshooting

If you can’t connect to a server, first try the suggestions here, then turn to

page 14.

• Make sure you’re using the drivers for this adapter. The driver filename

contains the letter B (for example, E100BODI.COM).

• If you’re replacing an existing adapter, make sure the LINK statement in

your NET.CFG is correct for the new adapter. For example, the LINK

statement for a NetWare client should be:

LINK DRIVER E100BODI

• Verify that the frame type in your NET.CFG file matches your network.

• If setting up a server, check your LOAD and BIND statements.

• Test the adapter by running diagnostics in Setup. Additional testing is

available by using a responder (see below).

• Check the README files (see page 1 for instructions).

Responder testing on the network (optional)

Setup can test the adapter more thoroughly if you have a responder on the

network while running the tests.

1Go to a computer on the network with any EtherExpress adapter installed

(except EtherExpress 32 or EtherExpress 16 MCA).

2Run the appropriate configuration program for the installed adapter and

set it up as a responder.

3Return to the computer with the new adapter. Run Setup and make the

new adapter a sender. Test the adapter.

Windows NT Server or Workstation

Automatic configuration

PCI computers automatically detect and configure PCI-compliant adapters

while booting. The PRO/100B TX PCI adapter IRQ level and I/O address are

automatically set by the BIOS each time you start your computer.

Start your computer to automatically configure the adapter. Configuration is

complete when Windows NT starts or the DOS prompt appears.

If your computer displays an error while booting, it may require additional

steps to configure. See the PCI Installation Tips section on page 17 for more

information.
