WARNING:
Do not pull on the RJ-45 cable to disconnect the RJ-45 con-
nector from the card. You may damage the RJ-45 connector pins as well as
the Ethernet Card.
After you have disconnected the RJ-45 cable, you can eject the Ethernet Card from
the notebook's PC Card slot.
NOTE:
In Win 95/98/2000 operating systems, you do not have to
power down the notebook to remove the card. The card is hot-
swappable—you can remove the card when the notebook is
powered on. However, Microsoft recommends that you stop the card.
Refer to your Win 95/98/2000 online help for information on stopping
the Ethernet Card.
Most notebooks have an eject lever or button for ejecting PC cards from the PC ports.
Consult your notebook's user's manual for details.
NOTE:
Do not eject the Ethernet Card when a data transmission is taking
place. Exit your communications program normally, stop the card if necessary,
and then remove the card.
