16CHAPTER 3: WINDOWS 98

Upon rebooting, Windows 98 automatically detects the modem interface of the card. See “Installing the Modem Interface” on page 17.

Installing Network You will need to install four types of network components: Client, Adapter, Software Components Protocol, and Service. These components are installed through the Network application in the Control Panel. The Network window lists which network

components are currently installed.

Before installing network components, consult with your network manager or MIS representative for the options you require for your network.

1Open the Network window by double-clicking the Network icon in the Control Panel.

2Click Add to add new or additional network components.

Some networks do not require all four components. Table 3 shows which components are required for four widely used network types.
