always use PING.EXE to make sure your network is working.
make sure the himem.sys is added in the config.sys(a windows xp/me boot disk need not this)
if used under some old card ,you should use a univesa to support vesa card.


10.How to set the configure file (TCP.CFG) by manual.
The install wizard program will make the configure for you.
If you want to set configure by manual you need a editer to edit the TCP.CFG.

netmask=255.255.0.0  (netmask, if you use a dhcp, this  need not to set)
