Troubleshooting the Hardware Installation
If you experience any problems with the hardware installation,
first ascertain that all network cable connections are firm, that the
proper grade of cable is used for the network connection, and
that the cable makeup is correct (straight -- without un-needed
crossovers in the connector wiring.) Check that the supporting
hub is powered-on and operating normally, and that the hub is
properly qualified (under 10Base-T and/or 100Base-TX stan-
dards.)
Verify Each Computers Identification
If more than one computer on your network has the same
"Computer name," communications may be negatively affected.
Also, each computer must have the same "Workgroup" name to
communicate properly.
Verify Network Adapter Installation
If your Network Adapter were not installed, including the Network
System Software or Device drivers, your network will not function
properly. Use these steps to verify that your Network Adapter are
properly installed.
1.
Double-Click the "System" icon in the Control Panel.
2.
Click the "Device Manager" tab on top of the "System
Properties" dialog box.
3.
Double-Click "Network Adapters" if you do not see any
items branching out. You should see "D-Link DFE-
650TXD CardBus PC Card branching out after double-
Clicking Network Adapters."
If you do not see any items branching out after double-clicking
"Network Adapters," your Network Adapter has not been properly
installed. Start at the beginning of the guide and follow these.
