 Introduction
 
    Thank you for purchasing the D-Link DE-220 Series Ethernet adapter.
    This diskette has network driver support for the DE-220 Series ISA
    Ethernet adpater including:
                     DE-220/C/T/CT/CAT/TP
                     DE-220ET/ECT/ECAT
                     DE-220PT/PCT/PCAT
    There is a format change for this driver disk. All README's have been
    reformatted, an added easy setup program called AUTOinstall, and added
    consistency on all documentation provided.

    Because D-Link is a global corporation, we make products and drivers
    for many different markets.  An example of the wide engineering
    development are the series of cards and a single set of drivers.

    During 1996, D-Link will change all driver disks to ARJ compression
    for better driver management and add provisions for even more drivers
    to the disk. We hope our new readmes and installations will minimize
    the users effort to make our products work. Should there be further
    recommendations please contact the support manager at the local
    D-Link Office listed bellow.

      D-Link Branch Office

 Plug N' Play Terminology
 
    The DE-220P series of the 220 Series adapters are the ISA Plug N' Play
    compatible adapters . Plug N' Play (PnP) allows the system mother board
    and the operating system to automatically configure an expansion
    adapter. To be PnP compliant all three devices need to support PnP.
    PnP standards were developed in most part by the INTEL corp. Most
    system boards and our DE-220P series are compliant. At this time
    Windows 95 is the only fully PnP operating system, but other OS's are
    implementing the specification very fast. Since PnP is a departure from
    standard "IBMPC" functional architechture the reference below may help
    answer questions about PnP. If problems arise from installing PnP please
    consult the \SETUP\README.TXT for help.

     Terminology
         PnP System - Plug and Play System
             PnP System BIOS - The PnP system BIOS configures all PnP
              adapters including adapters with system roms or multiple
              PnP compatible adapters

         PnP OS - PnP Operating System
             PnP operating system with PnP system BIOS - All PnP adapters
              on the system will be configured by PnP operating system
              with the aid of the system BIOS.
             PnP operating system without PnP system BIOS - All PnP
              adapters on the system will be configured by PnP operating
              system.

         PnP Compliance via a device driver
             Non-PnP - Non-Plug and Play System
              A Non-PnP system is one doesn't have a PnP system BIOS
              or a PnP compatible Operating system. Non-PnP systems called
              a legacy system also cannot run addition drivers to force
              PnP compliance.
             CM     - Plug and Play Configuration Manager
              A PnP Configuration Manager is a driver program loaded
              through CONFIG.SYS.  A CM driver allows Plug and Play ISA
              adapters to be configured by the system BIOS. It also allows
              other device drivers and applications to access the PnP
              configuration information.
             ICU - The ISA Configuration Utility
              The ICU is used to help configure legacy card (Non-PnP
              compliant cards, such as DE-220 or DE-220E). The ICU records
              user-selected configuration information into a database file
              for the systems. This information is used by a PnP system
              to configure the Plug and Play adapters while avoiding
              conflict with the legacy card.

         Respective Trademarks:
             ICU is provided by Intel.
             PnP BIOS is provided by BIOS vender.
             PnP operating system such as Windows 95 : provided by MicroSoft.
             Configuration Manager (CM) : provided by Intel.

 Getting Started
 
    AUTOinstall is provided to assist ease of setup for users.
    AUTOinstall will configure drivers, install the appropriate
    network drivers for popular network operating systems, and run
    diagnostics on DE-220 series adapters.

    To run AUTOinstall, simply run INSTALL.EXE program in the root
    of the driver disk.  (ie. A:\INSTALL<Enter>)

    If the network operating system you are using is not covered by the
    installation program, refer to the individual documentation provided
    for each driver directory.

 Driver Directory Structure
 
    The network drivers on this disk is organized in the following
    structure. Each directory contains a README.TXT file which
    provides you with detailed installation instructions for drivers
    in that directory.

    All drivers will automatically detect the hardware information
    including I/O base address and IRQ. The network media connector
    type will also be automatically detected during driver
    initialization.
