1000BASE-T modes and can easily be integrated with Fast
Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet hubs and switches. The
HGA32T includes the following features:
• Complies with IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T standard
• Complies with IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX standard
• Complies with IEEE 802.3ab 1000BASE-T standard
• Complies with PCI specifications
• Supports 32-bit bus master for high throughput and low
CPU utilization
• Supports both half and full duplex operation
• Supports 10/100/1000Mbps auto-sensing capability
6

PCI bus specifications
7
• CD-ROM drive
• The following cables:
Port Type Media
Max.

Unpack and Inspect
Caution:
Under ordinary circumstances, this adapter card will not be
affected by static charge, as may be received through your
body during handling of the unit. In special circumstances
where you may carry an extraordinarily high static charge, it is
recommended that you reduce the charge by grounding your
body before handling the adapter card.
Open the package and carefully remove all items. The
complete HGA32T package consists of:
• One 32-Bit Gigabit Ethernet PCI Adapter
• One CD with user’s manual and drivers
Check to make sure that the unit was not damaged during
shipping and that no items are missing. If you encounter a
problem, please contact your dealer.
Please read this manual thoroughly, and follow the installation
and operation procedures contained within.
9
1. Turn off the computer.
2. Remove the computer’s cover, in accordance with the
instructions in its manual.
3. Insert the contact edge of the adapter card into the
connector of any available PCI Bus expansion slot.
Press the card firmly into the connector of the PCI slot.
Please make sure that the card’s contacts are fully seated
in the PCI slot.
4. Install the bracket screw that secures the card to the
computer chassis.
5. Replace the computer’s cover.
6. Connect your Ethernet cable to the HGA32T’s RJ-45
network connector.
7. Insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive.
8. Turn on the computer.
9. If the BIOS section of your computer’s boot program is
Plug and Play compliant, then at power up the BIOS
will configure any newly installed adapter automatically.
Note:
Due to problems with some Plug and Play BIOS programs,
a newly installed adapter is occasionally assigned an interrupt
number that is already used by another device adapter. In such
a case, the interrupt number conflict will cause faults in the
behavior of both devices. If this occurs, it is necessary to run
10
the CMOS Setup utility and manually assign a non-conflict
Interrupt Number. As another alternative, moving the network
adapter to another PCI slot may also solve the problem.
CD ROM
The CD contains drivers for all the popular operating systems:
• Windows 98SE/ME/NT4.0/2000/XP
• Linux
• Netware 4/5/6.X
• Mac

Linux kernel 2.2.x.
1. Compiling rtl8169.c
"gcc -DMODULE -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6
-c rtl8169.c".
2. Move the object code rtl8169.o to the directory
"/lib/modules/2.2.14-5.0/net".
"cp rtl8169.o /lib/modules/2.2.14-5.0/net"
3. Insert the module to the kernel.
"insmod rtl8169"
4. Check the driver status
"dmesg"
5. The media can be forced to one of the five modes as
follows:
The link speed and duplex mode can be forced in five modes.
Command:"insmod rtl8169 media = SET_MEDIA"
16
Ex: "insmod rtl8169 media=0x04" will force link mode to be
100Mpbs half-duplex.
SET_MEDIA can be:
_10_Half = 0x01
_10_Full = 0x02
_100_Half = 0x04
_100_Full = 0x08
_1000_Full = 0x10
Linux kernel 2.4.x.
1. Compiling r8169.c using 'Makefile'.
"make"
Note:
Please remember to ASSIGN "NEW_INCLUDE_PATH"
in the Makefile according to the linux kernel.
2. Move r8169.o to the directory
"/lib/modules/<kernel>/kernel/drivers/net".
"cp r8169.o
/lib/modules/<kernel>/kernel/drivers/net"
where <kernel> represents the kernel version, say
2.4.18-3 in Red Hat 7.3
17
3. Insert the module by
"insmod r8169"
4. Check the driver status
"dmesg"
5. The media can be forced to one of the five modes as
follows:
Cmd: "insmod r8169 media = SET_MEDIA"
For example:
"insmod r8169 media = 0x04" will force the PHY to operate in
100Mpbs Half-duplex.
SET_MEDIA can be:
_10_Half= 0x01
_10_Full = 0x02
_100_Half= 0x04
_100_Full= 0x08
