Re: Is my newly installed NIC DOA?



"Allen Weiner" schrieb
I run Fedora 7. My PC is a seven-year-old Dell Dimension 4100.
It did not come with either integrated or standalone NIC.
My Internet access is dial-up only.

In order to have capability for DSL, I purchased an
Intel PRO/100 M NIC from a highly-rated seller on EBay.
I've performed two tests to determine if the NIC is OK.
Both tests appear to have failed.

Start up your system administration tool and let it first
try to recognize the hardware and configure it. Dunno how this
is called in Fedora.
