Chapter 8 Troubleshooting This chapter contains the following sections: Running Diagnostics on page 113 General Troubleshooting Guidelines on page 110 Note The troubleshooting options documented in this chapter are based on the AT-2500 Series adapter cards. Although the information provided is similar for each adapter card, there may be additional options depending the model.
Troubleshooting General Troubleshooting Guidelines This section contains troubleshooting guidelines for systems running Windows 95, 98, 2000, Me, NT, or XP. Suggestions Here are a few general troubleshooting suggestions: Check to be sure that the adapter card is completely seated in the PCI slot in the computer.
For example, you cannot connect the twisted pair port on an AT-2400T adapter card, which has a fixed operating speed of 10 Mbps speed, to a port on an remote Ethernet switch that has a fixed operating speed of 100 Mbps.
Troubleshooting Check to be sure that the operating specifications on the remote Ethernet hub or switch (e.g., operating speed and duplex mode) are compatible with the operating characteristics of the adapter card. For example, you cannot connect the fiber optic port on an AT-2450FTX, which has a fixed operating speed of 10 Mbps speed, to a port on an Ethernet switch which has a fixed operating speed of 100 Mbps.
At the DOS prompt, launch the diagnostic utility for the adapter card that you purchased.
