2.8.6 RJ45 Fast-Ethernet Port (NB30-EL and NB35-EL

only)

The NB30-EL and NB35-EL system boards are each equipped with
an  onboard  RJ45  fast-ethernet  LAN  por t  at  location  CN6  of  the
ATX double deck ports. It allows the system board to connect to a
local  area  network  by  means  of  a  network  hub.  The  Realtek
RTL8100  chip  that  controls  this  por t  can  be  enabled  or  disabled  in
the Integrated Peripherals submenu (“Intel OnChip PCI Device” field)
of the BIOS. Refer to the Integrated Peripherals section in chapter 3
for more information.
