27

Before installing the AT-2711 series adapter card, check the following list:

1. Check that your computer has an appropriate open PCIe slot.

2. Verify that your system is using the latest BIOS.

3. When you download the driver software from the Allied Telesis 

website, record the path to where the driver file resides on your 
system.

4. If your system is active, shut it down. 

5. When system shutdown is complete, power OFF and unplug your 

system.

6. Holding the adapter card by the edges, remove it from its shipping 

package and place it on an antistatic surface.

7. Check the adapter for visible signs of damage, particularly on the 

card’s edge connector. 

Never attempt to install any damaged adapter card. If the adapter 
card is damaged, report it to Allied Telesis. See “Contacting Allied 
Telesis” on page 11.
