2.10 TROUBLESHOOTING CHECKLIST FOR ADAPTERS
• Make sure the adapter is installed and properly seated in the
PC chassis connector.
• On the adapter, if the coax port is used it is necessary to have a
Tee and terminator attached to it.
• If the adapter does not initialize, verify that the bus slot is
operational by swapping the adapter with an adapter that you
know is functioning.
• Try swapping the adapter with a known working adapter.
• The interrupt, I/O address or memory parameters could be
conflicting with another adapter. Use a program like "Check-
It" to determine what settings are currently in use by other
adapters.
• Verify that the cable is attached to the media port that you want
to use, and that the cable is actually a Token-Ring twisted pair
cable.
• If a connection to a server or another host cannot be
maintained, check the cable first with a TDR or pair scanner.
After verifying the cable, check the device that you are trying
to communicate with. Verify that you can ping it or that other
clients can contact it.
