[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] Needed: Setup for KA9Q and 3C505

mholt@ssdc (mark holt) (03/30/91)

I need some help setting up a 3COM 3C505 Ethernet card for KA9Q.  I have read 
manuals for setting up AUTOEXEC.BAT and AUTOEXEC.NET, however, I have yet
to receive the 3COM manual and need to get started.  I believe my problem is
in how I have the board itself configured and would appreciate it if someone
would check this out for me.

AUTOEXEC.BAT contains: 3C505 0x7e 9

AUTOEXEC.NET contains: attach packet 0x7e 9 

My board is configured as follows:

INT	9
DMA	5
		Bit 	      
MEM ADDR	13	0	IO ADDR		4	0
		14	1			5	0
		15	1			6	0
		16	0			7	0
		17	0			8	1
		18	1			9	1
		19	1
		EN	1	ROM SEL		A15 OFF  A16 OFF

How does one select between thick and thin wire?  I am using the thick wire.
Maybe this is a hint - the lights are NOT lit on the thick wire transceiver.
