RealPort CardBus Ethernet 10/100+Modem 56 User’s Guide
LINEMODE
(For 32-bit NDIS3 Driver CBE.SYS)
selects either
half-duplex or full-duplex mode for the network. Valid parameters
are AutoDetect, Half Duplex, and Full-Duplex. Selecting full-
duplex enables the RealPort CardBus Ethernet 10/100+Modem 56
to send and receive data simultaneously when connected to a full-
duplex hub.
LINESPEED
(
For 16-bit DOS Drivers)
forces operation to 10 or
100Mbps. If the keyword is not present the line speed will be
automatically detected.
LINESPEED
(For 32-bit NDIS3 Driver CBE.SYS)
forces opera-
tion to 10 or 100Mbps. Valid parameters are AutoDetect, 10Mbps,
and 100Mbps.
LINKDISABLE
disables link integrity for non-IEEE 10BASE-T
networks such as StarLAN 10. Without this keyword in the driver
command line, the driver defaults to link integrity ENABLED.
MEM
,
MEMORY
specifies the host PC memory location for the
Xircom adapter in hexadecimal notation, when MODE MEMORY
(memory-mapped I/O) is being used (see MODE). The memory
block occupies 4 Kbytes of host memory.
MODE
when set to IO disables requests for memory-mapped
mode on systems that only support an I/O-driven card. The
MEMORY setting provides increased performance on computers
that allow simultaneous availability of memory and I/O resources.
NETWORKADDRESS
allows user to override adapter’s unique
network node address by specifying a different node address.
NOBURST
disables burst mode reads on the RealPort CardBus
Ethernet 10/100+Modem 56. Using this keyword will force the
adapter to initiate a bus-master request for each read, negatively
impacting performance
NOCHECK
disables verification of adapter resources. If the driver
detection and verification code is causing problems when loading,
this keyword can be used to turn the feature off.
NODEADDRESS
see
NETWORKADDRESS.
