Instructions
Warnings:
• Network cards are sensitive to static electricity. To protect the
card, avoid touching its electrical components and always
touch the metal chassis of your computer before handling the
card.
• Back up your driver diskette and use the copy as the working
diskette to protect the original from accidental damage.
1. Switch off the computer, unplug the power cord, and remove
the computer’s cover.
2. Select an unused PCI bus-master slot and remove its protective
bracket.
3. Carefully insert the card and press until all the edge connectors
are firmly seated inside the slot. Then screw the card’s bracket
securely into the PC’s chassis.
4. Attach the Wake-On-LAN cable (optional). If you require
Wake-On-LAN capability from a powered-off state, attach one
end of the 3-pin Wake-On-LAN cable to the connector on the
top edge of the card, and the other end to the “5 V Standby”
connector on the computer’s motherboard. Refer to your
computer’s installation manual to locate this connector.
