Using a different Ethernet card . You will need to set up your card according to the manufacturer's instructions then proceed with section 5 . Normally there are standard NET.CFG files on the disk which comes with the card and these lines can be copied from there. The EtherGen 2000 card should be configured using the Viglen EtherGen 2000A Driver Disk which came with the card. There are additional notes on using this program in the booklet which came with the card.
Most modern installations use twisted pair wiring.
If your cabling has large cylindrical connectors then you have Thin Net wiring and should choose the BNC option for the transceiver. If you are using Twisted Pair wiring, the computer is turned on and connected to the Ethernet wall socket a green light should be ON at the back of the card where the cable is attached. If the green light is not on then one of the later tests will fail. The LED does not light if you have chosen the BNC transceiver option. The card should pass all of the tests.
