Model PA310 Network Card Installation Guide

This guide provides instructions for installing the Windows Network Driver. The

steps given are for users of Windows 95. However, because all versions of

Windows 95 might not respond the same, windows that are different from those

shown in these instructions might open but prompt you for the same

information, or windows might open in a different order than shown in these

instructions.

If you are using Windows 98, read these instructions thoroughly for an overview

of the steps that are necessary for the installation of the software driver. Follow

the instructions given by the Windows 98 Installation Wizard to install the

driver.

If you have not yet named your PC and your network, before you proceed with

the installation steps, decide on a name for your network and for each PC. You

will be using these names in section 5, “Install the PA301 Software.”

1. Turn on the power to the computer and start Windows.

The new hardware is found and the driver is automatically loaded.

Select “Driver from disk provided by hardware manufacturer,” and

click on OK to open the Update Driver Wizard window.

(A New Hardware Found window might open that is different from the one

above and prompt you to click on Next to open the Update Driver Wizard

window.)

Note:

You must install the network card before installing the

network driver. You need to have the Windows 95 or Windows 98 CD

and the

NETGEAR Phoneline10X Resource

CD ready to use in the

installation process.

Note:

If the “Insert CD” window opens and the “Please insert the

CD labeled Windows”...message appears at any time during the

installation process, insert the Windows CD and click on OK. Then

proceed with the following steps.
