Can I connect or disconnect TU-ET100C while the computer is on?
Yes, you can connect or disconnect TU-ET100C while the computer is on
because the USB interface is Plug-and-Play compliant and hot-pluggable.
After successful installation of the TU-ET100C USB Fast Ethernet, I connected
my USB device into a USB slot, but it does not seem to work. What should I do?
Make sure that the CAT-5 cable is connected properly into your switch, or
broad-band modem. Double check the connection at the other end of the CAT-5
cable, and verify that the cable is inserted properly into your TU-ET100C. Also,
verify that your switch or your broad-band modem is getting any power.
When I verify the installation of the TU-ET100C, I see an exclamation point on
my network adapter. What should I do?
Go to Control Panel and double-click the System icon. Go to the Device
Manager and expand the Network adapters heading. Double-click ADMtek
ADM8511 USB to Fast Ethernet Converter (the icon that has an exclamation point
on it), and click the Driver tab. On the Driver tab, click Update Driver. Use 4.Driver
Installation in this installation manual to guide you in installing your driver.
