FCC COMPLIANCE STATEMENT
This equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the limits of a Class B computing devices,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against

frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications.
If you suspect this product is causing interference, turn
your computer on and off while your radio or TV is
showing interference. If the interference disappears
then when you turn the computer off and reappears
then you turn the computer on, something in the
computer is causing interference.
You can try to correct the interference by one or more
of the following measures :
1. Reorient/Relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
difference from that to which the receiver is
connected.
4. Ensure that all expansion slots (on the back or side
of the computer) are covered. Also ensure that all

Trouble-shooting
Most common factors that cause an adapter to fail are
configuration conflicts and cabling problems. PCI card
shouldn’t have any conflict problem due the plug and
play specification.
If you experience any problems with the adapter, first
make sure the appropriate driver is loaded, the proper
cable is connected to the adapter port and the hub
complies with the adapter specification, such as
10Mbps 10BaseT, then check the LED.
The adapter provides two LEDs to indicate network
status.
n Link
Monitors the data link status on the cable. It turns ON
when there is data link, and OFF when there is bad
connection.
n Activity
Blinks when there is data transmission/reception.
