1. Verify that your PC is powered on and that you are at the Windows

98 desktop.

2. Insert the USB cable’s square B-type plug into the adapter’s B-type

port.

3. Connect your adapter to a hub or switch using a straight-through

network cable. The RJ-45 jacks should fit into the RJ-45 port on
both the adapter and the hub.

• When connecting to a cable or DSL modem, you may have to use

the modem vendor’s Ethernet cable.

4. Insert the other end of the USB cable (the A-type connector) into

your PC’s USB port. The adapter is now connected to your PC.

5. After connecting the EtherFast 10/100 USB Network Adapter, your

computer will automatically detect the presence of the Linksys
USB adapter connected to your computer.

EtherFast 10/100 USB Network Adapter Driver Disk into floppy-
drive A and click Next.

When the following window appears, select Search for the best
driver for your device (Recommended)
. Click Next.

a:\Win98 in the drop down box. Click Next.

device drivers. A message will appear that reads Linksys EtherFast
10/100 USB
. Click Next.

10. Windows 98 will begin copying a number of files onto your com-

puter.

• If Windows asks you to supply the original Windows 98 CD-ROM,

insert the CD-ROM now and direct Windows to the proper loca-
tion for the disk (e.g. “D:\”). You may also have the Windows 98
setup files already installed in a “CABS” directory (e.g. “c:\win-
dows\options\cabs”). Once this is done, click OK.

• If Windows asks you to supply a driver containing the letters

“usb100”, insert the EtherFast 10/100 USB Network Adapter
Driver Disk into the floppy drive and type a:\win98 in the Copy
Files From box. Click OK.
