328.0. "Tools for Win 95" by ATYISA::POITEVIN () Fri Jan 24 1997 14:18

    
    
    	For the 2400 FH products I would like to know if we are a Win95
    	version of the tool RL2SETUP or an equivalent.
    	Proxim seems to have this kind of tool for their new 2400 FH
    	products (RANGELAN2 7400).
    
    	Thanks,
    
    	Thierry.

328.1Not yet, but working it with our partners.IROCZ::SCHWARTZMon Jan 27 1997 17:1510
    Hi Thierry,
    
    Currently these tools do not exist for the FH and we are currently
    working on a schedule and commitment with our partner on this.
    
    I have been testing a utility for the DS that I hope we can start
    shipping by the end of February (hope to get it on the internal WWW by
    mid February.

    Jeff,
    
    Ok you work for the FH with PROXIM to have their WIN95 tool but if you 
    want to use the RL2SETUP tool :
    	(1) with WIN95 in a DOS window it don't works.
    	(2) with the standard DOS it don't works.
    In the first case you have some conflict :
    	- I think this is a problem with the network... 
    The second case you have the same thing :
    	- the drivers (PCMCIA...) aren't loaded.
    
    Do you have tested this tool in WIN95 or do you have some ideas
    to resolve this problem.
    
    Thanks,
    
    Thierry.
328.3RL2SETUP will run on most PCs in DOS Mode (NOT DOS Window).IROCZ::SCHWARTZThu Jan 30 1997 19:5219
    Thierry,
    
    Yes, the current RL2SETUP will NOT work under Windows 95 and NT
    operating systems.
    
    If you boot in 'Command Prompt Only' this utility should work.  It will
    depend upon whether your PC has an Intel 82365 compatable controller. 
    It does work with DIGITAL's PCs.  Since the DIGITAL PC controller is
    not 100% compatible, we recommend running the utility CIRRUS.COM, that
    ships with the drivers.  This will setup one of the bits to make it
    look more Intel compatible.  I have run the RL2SETUP with and without
    CIRRUS loaded without a problem.
    
    If the PC has a PCMCIA controller that is not at all Intel compatable,
    you will need to load Card & Socket Services before the utility can be
    run.
    
    Regards,
    Jeff
