Introduction
Hardware Overview
The FNC-0107TX adapters are highly integrated and
cost-effective single-chip Fast Ethernet Adapter that provides
32-bit performance, PCI bus master capability, and full
compliance with IEEE 802.3u 100Base-TX specifications.
This adapter supports both 10Mbps and 100Mbps network
speed, 100BaseTX operates on two pairs of category 5 UTP
cable and 10BaseT operates on Category 3, 4, 5 UTP cable.
With the Auto-Negotiation technology, network speed is
auto detected. When you connect the adapter to 10BaseT hub
via UTP cable, the network speed becomes 10Mbps. Similarly,
if you connect the adapter to 100BaseTX hub, the network
speed is 100Mbps. If the hub is a switching hub which supports
full duplex function, then the speed will be doubled to
20Mbps/200Mbps.
This adapter supplies many drivers including ODI driver for
NetWare 3.x/4.x/5.x, NDIS driver for Microsoft LAN Manager,
Windows 98SE/ME/2000/Vista/Win 7, Linux, and a Packet
Driver for TCP/IP software. Whatever your requirements are
ease of installation, superior performance or responsive
support backed up by unlimited technical support, this adapter
is the superior choice.

Installation
Hardware Installation
To insert the FNC-0107TX into your computer, follow the steps
list below.
1. Turn off the computer and remove its cover.
2. Insert the adapter into a PCI slot.
3. Secure the adapter to the rear of the computer chassis and
put back the computer cover.
4. Connect the adapter to the network using twisted-pair
cables.
Hardware Requirement for Wake-On-LAN
The motherboard must support PCI 2.2. (The function will be
provided from the PCI bus directly ), Some computers may
require you to change a setting in your computer’s BIOS or
setup program to enable the WOL feature
ATX 2.01 power supply
Install only one active WOL adapter per computer.
You can install additional non-WOL adapters.

7
Driver Installation
Use the drivers supplied by the CD included in the adapter. For
detail description, please refer to "help" in the CD provided by
the adapter.
Troubleshooting
If you experience any problems with the adapter, first make
sure the appropriate driver is loaded, the proper cable is
connected to the adapter port and the hub complies with the
adapter specification, such as 10Mbps 10Base-T or 100Mbps
100Base-TX. Then recheck the LED.
The adapter provided one LEDs to indicate network status.
LINK/ACTIVE LED
A red LED will illuminate when the card has been
successfully connected to a network and blink when data is
being transmitted or received over the network. The Link/Active
LED lights up when the Adapter is connected to a network.
When the light is blinking, it indicates that the adapter is
receiving data or transmitting data.

Wake-On-LAN
The PC does not boot up when a Magic Packet or Wake
up Frame is sent.
1. Check the specification of this PC meets the hardware
requirement.
2. Enable the WOL function or the power-ON function of the
PC. Verify the BIOS setting of Wake-On-LAN is configured
properly. The name of this function is system dependent,
but may be located in a category heading titled something
like Power Management. (Please check your computer
owner’s manual for more information regarding the CMOS
Setup Utility and BIOS settings.
3. Boot up the PC again.
4. If the adapter still does not wake up, the reason might be
that your computer’s BIOS do not fully ACPI-compliant.
Your first step should be to contact your computer dealer
or motherboard maker to see if you need to upgrade your
computer’s BIOS.
