- Artisoft...............LANtastic AI ver. 4.1 information
-
- This document applies to the EtherExpress(tm) 16, 16TP, 16C, FLASH,
- FLASH TP, FLASHC, MCA, and MCA/TP.
-
- NOTE: Artisoft has certified the 16/16TP, Combo, and FlashC adapter cards.
- The MCA cards are not certified at this time and Artisoft's
- technical support will not support them. The LANtastic 4.1 and 5.0
- drivers have passed all Intel engineering pre-certification tests on
- all of our EtherExpress 16 cards including MCA.
-
- A problem exists with V2.03 when the auto-connect feature is used
- on ALL EtherExpress 16 cards. This problem MAY cause the wrong
- cable-type to be detected. As long as the cable type is selected
- via SOFTSET or MCA SC, the driver will ALWAYS work.
-
-
- Driver name: EXP16LAN.EXE
-
- Driver location: Now on our latest disk S/W part # 308629-004
- \artisoft\4.1\ directory.

-
- Troubleshooting tip:
- --------------------
- The EtherExpress 16 Softset utility provides on-board and on-network
- diagnostics. The on-network diagnostics tests if one board can
- communicate with another board on the network. This is independent
- of the LANtastic driver.
-
- Before you call Intel or Artisoft, we recommend you run the diagnostics.
- This will help you determine if your problem is board related or
- driver related.

-
- Installing the LANtastic AI 4.1 Driver
-
- This document (or an updated version) is also available on FaxBACK,
- document #6322.
-
- 1. From C:\ type: Install A:
-
- 2. Choose "Other" for the driver
-
- 3. Other changes in the install options are optional
-
- 4. When "Other" is chosen:
-
- a. The EXP16LAN.EXE driver needs to be copied into the \LANTASTI
- directory (or other directory specified by the installer - LANTASTI
- is the default)
-
- b. STARTNET.BAT file needs to be updated.
- The following 2 lines need to be added after the SHARE line -(it
- actually leaves 2 blank lines):
-
- EXP16LAN iobase=____ **
- AILANBIO
-
- ** The iobase information only needs to be added if the default
- (300) is not used
-
- These 2 files need to be run before any LANtastic redir or server
- commands.
-
- The STARTNET.BAT now looks like:
-
- @echo off
- path c:\...
- SHARE /L=200
- EXP16LAN iobase=xxx
- AILANBIO
- redir workstation_name logins=3 (this is a workstation set up)
- server c:\....lantasti.net (this is a server set up)
- Net login /wait \\server_name server_name
- Net lpt timeout 10
