5. Carefully slide the EtherFast card into your PC's slot.
Make sure that all of its pins are touching the slot's con-

6. Replace your PC's cover, then turn on your computer.
If your computer has a plug-and-play BIOS, it will auto-
matically recognize the card and assign a unique IRQ
("interrupt") and I/O address to it. If your PC isn't plug-
and-play compatible, consult your PC's user guide to see
how you should go about assigning a unique IRQ and
I/O address to a new interface card. Using your PC's
BIOS menu, give the EtherFast card IRQ and I/O values
that are not already in use by another interface card in
your computer.

Installing the Cabling
1. Attach one end of a twisted-pair cable into the
EtherFast card's RJ-45 port. Plug the other end of the
cable into the EtherFast 10/100 Auto-Sensing 5-Port
hub. You can plug the cable into any one of the five RJ-
45 ports. If you are connecting either PC to port 1 on
the hub, make sure that no cables are plugged into the
uplink port.

2. Plug the 2-pronged end of the EtherFast Hub's sup-
plied AC power supply into an AC electrical outlet. Plug
the other end into the hub's DC power jack. The hub's
green Power LED should light up. When the hub is in
use, the other LED indicators will light up see page 66
of the Appendix for more LED information.

If the EtherFast 10/100 Auto-Sensing 5-port Hub
encounters excessive network collisions or faulty
cabling, it will automatically partition the node(s)
responsible from the rest of the network, protecting the
remaining nodes against potentially corrupted data. To
reset the hub and clear any partitions, power the hub off,
wait a few seconds, then turn it back on.
