Network Problems
If the built-in network adapter doesn’t connect to the LAN
Check all cables and connections. Try connecting at a different network station, if
available.
If the green light next to the LAN port does not light, the LAN cable may not be
connected to the network or the network may be down. Try connecting a different
computer to the cable.
For Windows 95 or 98, open Network in Control Panel. Make sure you have the
correct clients and protocols installed.
Make sure the LAN cable is Category 3, 4, or 5 for 10Base-T operation, or Category
5 for 100Base-TX operation. Maximum cable length is 100 meters (330 feet).
Click Start, Help, Contents, Troubleshooting and use the Network Troubleshooter.
Click Start, Settings, Control Panel, System and open the hardware Device Manager.
If the network interface is disabled, try to enable it. If it has a conflict, try disabling
another device.
Run the LAN diagnostic software—click Start, Programs, 3Com NIC Diags, Setup to
install the software.
If you can’t browse the Network Neighborhood
Check with your network administrator to make sure NetBEUI protocol is supported
on the network.
Click Start, Find, Find Computer to look for a computer.
If you can’t log in to Netware servers
If a Netware server is using IPX/SPX protocol, you may need to force your frame
type to match the server’s frame type. Check with your network administrator.
If the computer stops responding after booting
Check whether you have a TCP/IP network with no DHCP server. This can cause a
long delay at startup because DHCP is enabled. Contact your network administrator
to determine the proper TCP/IP configuration.
