Network configuration
Quick Installation Guide
1 Hardware installation
1.1 PCI Fast Ethernet Card
1.1.1 Hardware Installation
To insert the network interface card into the computer, follow these steps:
1.
Turn the computer power off and unplug power cord and any other cables that
are connected to the computer. Remove the computer cover.
2.
Select an available PCI slot and remove the back plate from the selected slot
using a small screwdriver.
3.
Insert the card in the PCI slot, and make sure it is completely seated and
secure the screw you removed from the back plate.
4.
Replace computer cover and reconnect power cord and other cables.
5.
Align the RJ-45 connector on one end of the cable with the notch on the
network interface card’s RJ-45 port and insert it into the card.
6.
Connect the RJ-45 connector on the other end of the cable to the network
interface card on the other computer.

Windows 98 Installation
1. Turn the power on and boot from Windows 98.
2. Windows 98 will prompt “PCI Ethernet Controller” in “New Hardware Found”
dialog box.
3. Select "Search for the best driver" from “New Hardware Found” dialog box, then
click Next.
4. Insert the Sitecom Driver Diskette in your floppy drive.
5. Select “specify a location”, type ‘A:\WIN98’, then click Next.
6. Follow the on screen instructions to complete the process.
7. Restart your computer.
8. When the computer restarts, you are prompted for the user name and
password. Please enter a name (you do not have to use a password). If you
enter a password, you must use this password each time you use the computer,
or Windows 98 does not let you login the network.
Before you proceed with the installation steps, you need to have the Windows 98 CDROM, if the “Insert Disk” window opens and the “Please insert the disk labeled Windows
98...” message appears at any time during the installation process, insert the Windows
98 CD-ROM in appropriate drive (the CD-ROM drive) and click on “OK”. Then follow the
next step in the instructions.

For these Operating Systems it is not necessary to install the Network adapter
with the driver disk. The adapter will be found and installed automatically by
Windows
Check to see if the adapter is correctly installed:
Windows ME
Click the “My Computer” icon on the desktop with the right mouse button, choose
“properties”. Select the “Device manager” tab. In the next screen click on the
plus (+) besides “Network adapters” and check if the ND010 Fast Ethernet
adapter or RTL 8139 PCI Fast Ethernet-adapter is installed
Windows 2000
Click the “My Computer” icon on the desktop with the right mouse button, choose
“properties”. Select the ‘hardware’ tab; Click the “Device manager” button. In
the next screen click on the plus (+) besides “Network adapters” and check if the
RTL 8139 PCI Fast Ethernet-adapter is installed
Windows XP
Click start, Click the “My Computer” with the right mouse button, choose
“properties”. Select the ‘hardware’ tab; Click the “Device manager” button.
In the next screen click on the plus (+) besides “Network adapters” and check if
the RTL 8139 PCI Fast Ethernet-adapter is installed

DOS ODI driver installation
In the driver diskette, the "NWCLIENT" directory contains DOS ODI drivers to
support Novell's NetWare 3.x and 4.x network operating system.
4. Setting Up a Local Area Network
4.1
Network Protocols
Windows installs 3 network protocols automatically during the installation of the
hardware. Network applications only use 1 protocol at a time. However, just leave all
3 protocols because different applications can use different protocols. Internet sharing
in example uses TCP/IP while some network games use IPX/SPX.
NetBEUI: The acronym stands for NetBIOS Extended User Interface. This is Windows
native network protocol. NetBEUI does not contain a network address, so it’s not a
routable protocol. This means data cannot be routed from one network to another.
IPX/SPX: This acronym stands for Internet work Packet Exchange/Sequenced
Packet Exchange. This is a Novell NetWare-based protocol that is used to route
messages from one network node to another. IPX/SPX is a routable protocol, and
because IPX packets include network addresses, data can be exchanged between
different networks. SPX ensures that an entire message (a data IPX packet) arrives
intact.
TCP/IP: An acronym for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol, TCP/IP was
developed by the U.S. Department of Defence to connect and network to dissimilar
systems. TCP provides the data-transport functions, while IP provides the routing
mechanism. TCP/IP is a routable protocol. Every client and server in a TCP/IP network
requires an IP address, which can be assigned either permanently or dynamically (DH
CP – Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), meaning that it draws from a pool of
addresses each time the machine starts up.
4.2
Configuration for TCP/IP
The TCP/IP protocol is used to setup a network between the two pc’s, which has to be
configured.
Windows 98/ME
Right click the icon “My Network places” on the desktop, choose “properties”. If
you have multiple network cards, be sure to select the correct one: each network
card, including the dial-up adapter, requires a unique IP address. In the “general” tab
choose “Use this IP-address”, use 192.168.1.1 for the IP address, incrementing
the last digit of the IP address for each machine (the second machine's address would
be 192.168.1.2, the third 192.168.1.3, and so on). The Subnet Mask should be the
same (255.255.255.0) for all of the machines. You don't need to worry about
Gateway or DNS numbers in this situation.
Windows 2000
Right click the icon “My Network places” on the desktop, choose “properties”.
Right click the LAN connection of the Sitecom Network adapter, choose “properties”.
Click the TCP/IP protocol.
In the “general” tab choose “Use this IP-address”. Fill in the address as mentioned
in the Windows ME/98 section.
Windows XP
Click start, Right click the icon “My Network places”, and choose “properties”.
Right click the LAN connection of the Sitecom Network adapter, choose “properties”.
Click the TCP/IP protocol.
In the “general” tab choose “Use this IP-address”. Fill in the address as mentioned
in the Windows ME/98 section.
Now you are ready to configure file and printer sharing. Do so before rebooting the
PCs
4.3 File and Printer sharing
Windows 98/ME
To enable File and Printersharing on your network, Right click the icon “My Network
places” on the desktop, choose “properties”. Click the ‘file and printersharing”
button. Simply click the two boxes you see in the resulting dialog box, then click OK.
But before you reboot your computer, you'll need to check a few other settings.
1. Click the Identification tab in the Network Control Panel. Enter a unique
COMPUTERNAME, and a brief description of your computer in the Computer
Description slot. The WORKGROUP name you assign to each computer must be
exactly the same for every computer on your network. If you're running an NT
server, and it's a Domain Controller, you'll want to put the name of your
server's domain in the Workgroup section on all of your computers. This
enables each user to log in and share resources with the server directly; just
make sure to create user accounts on the server first
2. Sharing Drives and Folders.
When you want to share a hard drive (or any other storage device) on one
machine with all of the other machines on the network, simply right-click the
drive letter or folder you wish to share, then select Sharing from the pop-up
menu. After you select Sharing, you'll be presented with a dialog box
containing several options. Type in the Share Name, add a comment, and set
the access type. If you choose Read Only, other computers on the network will
be prevented from copying files into the shared drive or folder. If you select
Full, any machine on the network will be able to write to them as well.
3. Sharing Printers.
Click ‘start’, ‘settings’, and ‘printers’. Right click the printer you want to share
on the network and choose “sharing”. In the following screen enable sharing
and fill in a sharename, the printer is now shared. To use the network printer
on other PCs in the network, it has to be installed on the other PCs first. Click
‘start’, ‘settings’, and ‘printers’. Click the ‘Add New Printer’ icon. The ‘New
Printer Wizard’ starts. Choose ‘network printer’. In the following screen browse
to the correct printer via network environment. The printer will now be
installed. Repeat this steps for all PC’s in the network. The printer can now be
used from every PC in the network.
Windows 2000/XP
File and Printer sharing will be installed automatically under Windows 2000/XP.
Sharing files, folders and printers is the same as under Windows 98/ME, however
assigning the computer and workgroup name as in step one is different.
Windows 2000
Right click the ‘My Computer’ icon on the desktop, choose ‘properties’. Click the
‘computer name’ tab. Fill in the COMPUTERNAME and the WORKGROUPNAME by
the same specifications as Windows 98/ME
Windows XP
Click ‘start’. Right click the ‘My Computer’ icon, choose ‘properties’. Click the
‘computer name’ tab. Fill in the COMPUTERNAME and the WORKGROUPNAME by
the same specifications as Windows 98/ME
Congratulations! After a reboot your network is complete!
