[ct-user] NETTSR + 3COM PCMCIA card

     Which specific model 3COM PC Card?  It makes a big difference.
     
     If you're using a 3C589, you need the 3C589.COM driver, NOT the older 
     3C509 or later 3C5X9 drivers (which are for the 3C509 series ISA 
     NIC's).
     
     There are different drivers for the other cards.  They are pretty much 
     card-specific, and you can find the latest versions of each on the 
     3COM web & ftp sites.
     
     My company standardized on 3COM cards years ago, and I've never come 
     across FMEnable.  That also might be the wrong configuration utility; 
     for example, the 3C589 uses 3C589CFG.EXE.
     
     GL!

Hi,
Could anyone using a 3COM pccard on a laptop please send me the command 
line they use to configure the LAN card and start CT?
I keep getting "no packet driver found". The 3com card has a card 
configuration utility called fmenable.com for use in DOS.Then I use the 
3c509.exe packet driver and set it up like the K1TTT instructions.
     
I have the following lines in my bat file.
     
fmenable IRQ=5 COM=4    (default address reads 300h) 
3c509 0x60 0x300 0xc000
nettsr 10.0.0.1 100 255.255.255.0 9870 10.0.0.10
     
Anything obvious that I am doing wrong? Any help appreciated.
