Chapter 4:  Troubleshooting 
 

 

If the ETCIACT Ethernet adapter card is not working properly try the 

following: 
 
a)  Check the connections

 

– re-plug the cables and check for any signs of 

damage or a bad connection 

b)  Check the ETCIACT card connection- be sure that the card is oriented 

properly (label side up) 

c)  For a 10Base-T LAN segment – check the Link status LED on your 

LAN segment’s HUB 

d)  For BNC LAN segment – check connections and be sure that it is 

properly terminated (see section 1.5 for cable requirements) 

e)  Check that the configuration settings (set in the driver control file, 

NET.CFG for the ODI driver or PROTOCOL.INI for the NDIS driver) 
do not conflict with the I/O or IRQ of another device 

f)  Check that the proper driver was installed and that it was properly 

configured (see section 3.3) 

g)  If you are using EMM386 as a memory manager you may have to 

remove the adapter’s shared memory space from memory manager 
control. 

h)  Make sure that your system has Card Service and Socket service 

installed (see section 3.2 and your PC’s manual) 

i) 

If you have another ETCIA adapter card available, install it. If 
everything works with this card installed then you may have to return 
your adapter card.
