INTRODUCTION
The D-Link DFE-670TXD 10/100Mbps PC Card adapter is an ideal
way to connect your laptop computer to your LAN (Local Area
Network.) After completing the steps in the Quick Install Guide,
you will have the ability to share information and resources - such
as files and printers - and take full advantage of a “connected”
environment for work and play!
The DFE-670TXD comes with drivers for the most popular operat-
ing systems and can be integrated into a large network. You can
connect your laptop to a network when running Windows 98,
Windows ME, NT 4.0 or 2000.
The D-Link DFE-670TXD 10/100 Ethernet PC Card for notebook
PCs is a credit-card sized Ethernet / Fast-Ethernet adapter for con-
necting a notebook PC to an IEEE 802.3 or 802.3u Ethernet net-
work. The notebook PC must be equipped with PCMCIA (16 bit)
extension bus and Type II PC Card slot(s) compliant.
NOTE: The terms "PC Card" is used throughout this manual to refer to those
objects as defined in the PCMCIA / PC Card standards published by Personal
Computer Memory Card Industry Association (PCMCIA). The term "slot" as used
in this manual is synonymous with "socket" where the standards use the latter
term in reference to the physical receptacles of a host notebook computer, for
insertion/connection of PC Cards. More information on the standards is available
from PCMCIA's www server at http://www.pc-card.com
.
The DFE-670TXD automatically detects the parameters of its Ethernet
environment, and automatically negotiates and determines its own
speed and duplex settings as required for maximum performance within
the environment. (The autonegotiation function is effective only when
the DFE-670TXD is connected to the network by a device (switch or
hub) which also has autonegotiation functionality.)
