SUMMARY

When you set up the PowerLan product from Performance Technologies with Microsoft Windows version 3.0, use the "Microsoft Network (or 100 compatible)" network driver.

MORE INFORMATION

According to Performance Technologies, the PowerLan product is 100-percent compatible with the Microsoft Network protocol.

Performance Technologies has also stated that Windows 3.0 does not run in enhanced mode on a non-dedicated server (a server that is also acting as a workstation). Performance Technologies is researching this issue and will notify Microsoft as new information becomes available.

When performing a network setup, use the following command:

SETUP /I /N

On certain Arcnet network cards, the following command removes all network connections:

SETUP /N

The PowerLan Network handles all print spooling, so Print Manager should be disabled in Control Panel.
