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.
5 When Setup finishes the tests, you’ll see the Install Network Drivers
screen.
6 Select 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.
1 Go to a computer on the network with any EtherExpress adapter installed
(except EtherExpress 32 or EtherExpress 16 MCA).
2 Run the appropriate configuration program for the installed adapter and
set it up as a responder.
3 Return to the computer with the new adapter. Run Setup and make the
new adapter a sender. Test the adapter.
