Mao ni imo checklist bro...

- check your lan ports on your router first, use your lapply's ethernet port. kung maka internet ka. ok imo ports sa router..
- unsai OS sa old pc nimo? mas dali i T/S kung XP pataas..
- CHECK old pc if completo iyang drivers...esp network drivers. check sa device manager kung naa ka question mark or x among the list
- if you have missing drivers, install necessary drivers..
- try again..

hope it helps...

- ok ang lan ports sa ako router bro kai mkainternet ra

[VonTech]

- ok ang lan ports sa ako router bro kai mkainternet ra
- windows ME ang os sa ako old na pc..

So it seems isolated na nimo ang router, so possible naa sa drivers, settings sa windows/ HW issue

on board ba ethernet port sa old pc nimo or naa siya separate na LAN card?

Windows 98/ME Network Setup Guide

.

[coolnezz]

Introduction

This document describes an example of the network settings for connecting Windows 98/ME to the HKUST campus network.

1.

About Network Adapter
To connect your computer to the network, you need to have a network adapter. You are free to choose your own network card model. However, please note that network card should provide an UTP network connection jack.

Besides, you need to have the following software on hand for installation:
*

Windows 98/ME media (i.e. Windows 98/ME CD-ROM)
*

Network Adapter Driver Diskette(s)

2.

About Network Protocol
The standard network protocol used in campus is TCP/IP. In order for a machine to communicate with others on the campus network, an IP address together with some other parameters are required. These parameters can be acquired via our DHCP server once the ethernet address of the network adapter is registered into our database.

Students/Staff should register the ethernet address of the network adapter via the ResNet web page. To obtain the ethernet address of the adapter, you may run the command WINIPCFG under a MS-DOS Prompt or you may visit our web page for instructions on how to determine the ethernet address.

Following section describes the procedure to install network protocol into Windows 98/ME system. After successful installation, your machine will be ready to run TCP/IP applications. You may then visit our Download Area web page for downloading some useful applications.

Installation Steps

Please note that following the mentioned installation steps below will modify your Windows 98/ME network settings.

1.

Install Network Adapter
Make sure the network card adapter and the network connection cable are properly inserted and plugged. See instructions for details.

2.

Install Ethernet Driver during Windows 98/ME Startup
Upon bootup, the Plug-and-Play Manager of Windows 98/ME will detect the new network card and prompt for the driver diskette.
1.

When you see the following window, insert the driver diskette 1 into drive A: and then click Next. If you do not have the driver diskette, click Cancel and then refer to the Appendix.




2.

Click Finish after Windows has found the updated driver for your network card. The installation process will then proceed.
3.

You will be prompted for the location of the driver diskettes and the location of the Windows installation media. Insert the correct driver diskette when prompted and specify the correct location (remember to change the path to Copy files from A:\ when prompted for the network driver diskette). Then click OK.
4.

The system will prompt you to provide computer name that identify your computer on the network. The Computer name is the node name (e.g. DMC001) which should be obtained when you registered the network adapter during network connection application. Then click OK.
5.

Click Yes when you are prompted to restart the computer (remember to remove the floppy diskette from the floppy drive if there is any).
6.

You will see a logon window if you succeed. Then press the ESC key or the Cancel button.
7.

Follow the section below to remove the unnecessary network protocol.
　
3.

Remove Unnecessary Network Protocol
To prevent from having network browsing problems, it is better to remove all protocols other than TCP/IP.

1.

Enter into the Network control window if you do not have it opened.
*

Click Start --> Settings --> Control Panel --> Network.
2.

The Network control window has three tab pages, namely: Configuration, Identification, and Access Control.

*

Go to the Configuration tab page. You will see a number of components installed by default. These are not needed for our HKUST environment and should be removed.
*

Select IPX/SPX-compatible Protocol, and then click the Remove button.
*

Select NetBEUI, and then click the Remove button.



3.

Follow the section below to configure the TCP/IP network protocol.
　
4.

Configure TCP/IP Network Protocol
1.

Enter into the Network control window if you do not have it opened.
*

Click Start --> Settings --> Control Panel --> Network.
2.

Install TCP/IP network protocol if it is not present.
*

Click Add under the Configuration tab.
*

Select Protocol and then click Add....
*

Select Microsoft for the Manufacturers and TCP/IP for the Network Protocols. Then click OK.
3.

Select TCP/IP and then click Properties.
4.

Define the properties of the TCP/IP configuration.
*

Under the IP Address tab page, select the option to Obtain an IP address automatically.
*

Under the WINS Configuration tab page, select the option to Use DHCP for WINS Resolution.
*

Under the DNS Configuration tab page, select the option to Disable DNS.
*

Under the Advanced tab page, make sure the box of Set this protocol to be the default protocol is checked, and then click OK to finish the configuration. (If this box is not checked, then another protocol must have been installed as the default protocol. Remove such protocol from the Configuration tab page mentioned in Section C-2 and then come back here to check again.)

　
5.

Configure Microsoft Network Client
1.

Enter into the Network control window if you do not have it opened.
*

Click Start --> Settings --> Control Panel --> Network.
2.

Click Add... to install Microsoft Network Client if it is not present.
*

Click Add under the Configuration tab.
*

Select Client and click Add....
*

Select Microsoft for the Manufacturers and Client for Microsoft Networks for the Network Clients. Then click OK.
3.

Select Client for Microsoft Networks and then click Properties.
4.

Define the properties of the Microsoft Network Client.
*

Select the option to Quick logon.
*

Then click OK.
5.

Go to the Identification tab page to define the computer identification.
*

Fill in the Computer name (e.g. DMC001).
*

Fill in the Computer Description.

The Computer name is the node name (e.g. DMC001) which should be obtained when you registered the network adapter during network connection application.
6.

Go back to the Configuration tab page and make sure that Client for Microsoft Networks is selected under the Primary Network Logon option. Then click OK to confirm all the changes.

7.

Restart your computer when prompted.

The modified networking settings will take effect after system restarts. You should then be able to install and run Internet applications such as Netscape, Telnet, FTP, etc. In case you encounter any problem, you may verify if the network settings are correct by running the command WINIPCFG at a MS-DOS Prompt (access from Starts --> Programs --> MS-DOS Prompt). If network setup is successful, the IP Configuration window will show an IP Address starting with 143.89., Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, DNS Server settings of your Windows 98/ME.
