########################################### # Using Symphony # ########################################### If you are using one of the Symphony cards, here are some tips: - if you are using the PnP ISA card, see the pnp tips below; also check README.PnPISA - if you are using the PC Card, see README.pcmcia - set the domain to 0 and the security ID to the Symphony security code you are using - Choose an IP address in 10.x.x.x/255.0.0.0; if you are unlucky enough to choose a duplicate IP, try another - set your default route to 10.0.0.1 as your gateway if you are using a Cordless Modem or Conductor - set your DNS in resolve.conf to 10.0.0.1, ditto above - if you are using a Cordless Modem or Ethernet Bridge, you'll need the Maestro s/w (not supported on Linux) to configure the modem; once configured, set the modem to autoconnect so that linux activity brings it up automatically - note that your linux machine will not show up in the network maps of your win98 clients. - check the rx packet counter. broadcasts from pings originating will cause the counter to increment and prove you have wireless connectivity. ########################################### # Using PnP ISA with Symphony # ########################################### Check the docs for using PnP. I use the RedHat Distibribution. Here's a couple of tips, not guaranteed to work: 1) make a config file: pnpdump > /etc/isapnp.conf 2) uncomment the lines for IO, IRQ and ACT Y; set an available IO and IRQ 3) start pnp somewhere where your startup will run it before starting your networking subsystem, like rc.sysinit: 'isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf' 4) load the driver and/or up your interface 5) check the note in README.PnPISA
