Installation and Setup Overview

The LAN+Modem card installation software performs most
of the installation and setup for you. However, before
installing the LAN+Modem card, you should know:
Ask your network manager or MIS technician for any setup
information that you do not already have.
The steps for installing and configuring the LAN+Modem
card are:
1 Run Setup to view installation instructions.
Setup runs under Windows 95, Windows NT, Windows 3.x
and Windows for Workgroups.
As a precaution, when you are following software
installation procedures, use AC rather than battery power.
2 Install the card in your computer.
In some cases, the Setup program will prompt when to
insert the card. See Chapter 2, "Inserting and Connecting
the Card," for installation procedures.
