11 When the path for the configuration files is
displayed, verify that the path is correct and
press Enter.
12 Press Enter again to return to DOS and edit the
STARTNET.BAT file.
13 Add the NIC’s slot number in the STARTNET.BAT file
as follows:
load c:\novell\client32\tlnkpodi.lan frame=token-ring msb slot=<nnnn>
where <nnnn> is the slot number.
If you do not know your NIC’s slot number, you can turn off
your PC, remove the cover, and check the slot.
14 On the same LOAD line, you can set the NIC’s ring
speed as follows.
load c:\novell\client32\tlnkpodi.lan...ringspeed=<auto | 4 | 16>
where <auto | 4 | 16> is the ring speed setting:
■
Auto
— Allows the NIC to automatically detect the ring
speed. (This is the default setting.)
■
4
— Disables auto ring speed detection and sets the
NIC ring speed at 4 Mbps.
■
16
— Disables auto ring speed detection and sets the
NIC ring speed at 16 Mbps.
15 Restart your workstation to start Client32.
The system prompts you for the 3C359 NIC’s slot when the
TLNKPODI.LAN driver is loaded.
