Apple Ethernet Card: Requires Network SW Installation (9/96)

I work for a school district that has several Power Macintosh 5260/100 computers. We had an Apple Ethernet Comm Slot card installed in each of the computers. However, I cannot get any of them to switch over to EtherTalk using the Network control panel.


Once the Apple Ethernet Comm Slot cards are installed, you must install the networking software. You can install the network software by using the Network Software Installer (NSI) 1.5.1 or later disk which came with the Ethernet Comm Slot card. If you cannot locate the NSI installer disk, you can install the network software by performing a Custom Install of the Networking software from the System Software CD-ROM disc.

Once the networking software is installed, you can use EtherTalk by selecting EtherTalk in the Network control panel, or AppleTalk control panel if Open Transport is being used.


Article Change History:
30 Sep 1996 - Added NSI to install network software.
