• Make sure you’re using the drivers that are on the drivers diskette that ships with this adapter.

• Make sure the driver is loaded and the protocols are bound. Check Device Properties list for trouble indicators (an X or ! symbol).

• Test the adapter. Start PROSet (see page 9) and click Test to run diagnostics.

• Check with your LAN administrator — you may need to install supplemental networking software.
