Preparing the NIC and the Computer
Observe the precautions listed in Safety Precautions on
page 27. Follow these preparation steps:
1 Decide whether you want to use Remote Wake-Up.
If you want to use the Remote Wake-Up feature on a
computer that complies with PCI 2.1, you must obtain a
Remote Wake-Up cable for the NIC (for details, see Remote
Wake-Up on page 21). If the computer complies with PCI
2.2, Remote Wake-Up is automatically enabled through the
PCI bus and no Remote Wake-Up cable is required.
To be able to register electronically, a web browser
must be installed on your system. You must also have
an active Internet service provider (ISP) connection
.
The original version of Windows 95 (Build 950) does
not automatically allow you to change your default
browser, even if Microsoft Internet Explorer is not
present. If you are running this version of Windows 95
on your PC, access the following site to register your
