Push Installation for Windows 95
If you are a LAN administrator setting up a server-based push installation of
Windows 95 as defined in the Microsoft Windows 95 Resource Kit, you’ll need
to follow additional steps for this adapter. Refer to the W9XPUSH.TXT file in
the \PUSH\WIN9X directory on the Intel adapter CD.
Fast Ethernet Wiring
The 100BASE-TX specification supports 100 Mbps transmission over two pairs
of Category 5 twisted-pair Ethernet (TPE) wiring. One pair is for transmit oper-
ations and the other for receive operations. Segment lengths are limited to 100
meters with 100BASE-TX for signal timing reasons. This complies with the
EIA 568 wiring standard.
Troubleshooting and FAQs
If the Adapter Can’t Connect to the Network
Make sure the cable is installed properly.
The network cable must be securely attached at both RJ-45 connections (adapter
and hub). The maximum allowable distance from adapter to hub is 100 meters.
If the cable is attached and the distance is within acceptable limits but the prob-
lem persists, try a different cable.
If you’re directly connecting two computers without a hub or switch, use a
crossover cable.
Check the LED lights on the adapter.
The adapter has two diagnostic LEDs, one on each side of the cable connector.
These lights help indicate if there’s a problem with the connector, cable, or
switch/hub.
