OS/2 Warp 3.0 with OS/2 Lan Requester 4.0 **************** SECTION II. * INTRODUCTION * **************** The \OS2\NETWORK sub-directory contains driver support for the IBM 4612 OS/2 systems Network LAN's. Support is provided for the following network adapters: - SPECTRUM24 - OEM Wireless PCMCIA LAN ( Symbol ) - TOKEN-RING - IBM Token-Ring PCMCIA LAN - ETHERNET - IBM Ethernet PCMCIA LAN Network support is provided for the following networks: - OS/2 - OS/2 Lan Requester 4.0 from diskettes or Warp Connect / CD-ROM Refer to the \OS2\NETWORK\ sub-directory on the diskette for additional installation files supporting the networks and network adapters listed above. We RECOMMEND that you read the following information before proceeding with 4612 network driver installation. * Installing OS/2 Warp 3.0 - refer to the 4612RD2.TXT file located * * in the root directory . * Installation of LAN drivers for the IBM 4612 is discussed below. **************************************************************** SECTION III. * The Spectrum24 2.4GHz Wireless LAN PCMCIA Adapter ( Symbol ) * **************************************************************** Setup Information: MAKE SURE THAT CARD and SOCKET SERVICES WERE NOT INSTALLED DURING the OS/2 WARP 3.00 INSTALLATION. To set power management mode for the Spectrum24 adapter add the following parameter to the PROTOCOL.INI file: POWERMGMT = 1 =============================================== CHAPTER 1. = OS/2 Warp 3.0 with OS/2 Lan Requester 4.00 = =============================================== Possible Errors and Error Messages: Recommendation: PCMCIA failed to initialize The firmware is at version 3.00 so make sure the slandis.os2 driver is at version 2.64. . Make sure card and socket services are not installed in config.sys Review config.sys in os2\network\ symbol directory. The PCMCIA adapter is defective. Cannot Associate with the Access The slandis.os2 driver is at Point version 2.64 so make sure the firmware is at version 3.00. Unable to logon to the Server Make sure the Access Point is on Make sure the SID, Channel and Datarate match the Access Point's parameters. Make sure the ethernet cables from Access Point and Server are in the correct HUB or network. You are logged on, but you have not Make sure the NetworkId in the been validated by the server protocol.ini is the correct number. Default is 101 or 1dd. Run-Time Error R6003 - Integer Make sure the I/O Base 280 is not Divided by 0 or Divide Overflow used in the protocol.ini. Try interrupt 11 and I/O Base 300 320, 340, 380, or 400. LT00055 Error in OS2\SYSTEM\ Remove Card and Socket Services LANTRAN.LOG. An unexpected error was from the config.sys file. Review returned when the program tried to the config.sys in the OS2\NETWORK\ transmit the duplicate node address SYMBOL\OS2 directory. test. The Slandis_nif MAC return code is 11. **************************************************************** SECTION IV. * The IBM Token-Ring Credit Card Adapter * **************************************************************** Note. Before installing OS/2 Lan Requester 4.0 read the 4612RD2.TXT file first. This document has very important information concerning OS/2 installation and setup. Note. The RPL function is not supported on the 4612. ================================================ CHAPTER 2. = OS/2 Warp 3.0 with OS/2 Lan Requester 4.00 = ================================================ In order to install OS/2 Lan Requester 4.0 without a lot of frustration, select " no adapter card "; OS/2 Lan Requester installs as if there is a card present so complete the remainder of the installation as usual. Then use the enclosed files as an example to help configure the setup. For possible problems or error messages review the " READ.ME " file on the IBM Token-ring 16/4 Credit Card Adapter II diskette. **************************************************************** SECTION V. * The IBM Ethernet Credit Card Adapter * **************************************************************** Note. Before installing OS/2 Lan Requester 4.0 read the 4612RD2.TXT file first. This document has very important information concerning OS/2 installation and setup. Note. The RPL function is not supported on the 4612. ================================================ CHAPTER 3. = OS/2 Warp 3.0 with OS/2 Lan Requester 4.00 = ================================================ Possible Errors and Error Messages: Recommendation: IBM LANDD is accessing IBM 802.3 Interface Make sure the ramaddress in Error Code: LT00046: IBM LANDD was unable the protocol.ini file is to open to the PCMNICCS-nif MAC driver. set to D4000 or higher. Also MAC driver. Adapter 0 is using node address make sure the interrupt level 000000000000. The token-ring format is is set to 10 or 11. 000000000000. NET3060: The service did not respond Change the interrupt level in the a control signal and was stopped protocol.ini file from 5 to 10 or with the DosKillProc function. 11.
