Davicom ethernet drivers.
See: How to install a network adapter driver.
Following ones are the download links for manual installation:
Davicom Fast Ethernet driver v. 1.28 (21/3/2002) | Readme/What's new |
About these drivers:
--------------------
There are several versions of Ethernet drivers for the Davicom
9100-series chipsets to be found floating about on the internet.
Despite varying labels for them, most or all will, when
examined, prove to be coded internally as v. 1.15, which is not
the latest.
That Davicom chipset is still to be found on Ethernet cards
being sold new (mine was on a CNet PRO200), but not necessarily
with any OS/2 driver included (as my CNet diskette had not).
The driver I found posted at Hobbes was a 1.15 version, and
either it or one of the two accompanying files was such that it
simply would not work--it reliably crashed the system at
every bootup attempt (Warp 4 + FP15).
Eventually, I located the driver in this package, which is
internally version 1.28, and it worked fine. This is the latest
driver posted on Davicom's own site, and I much doubt, from the
2002 date, that there will ever be a later one.
I give no install instructions, as--to me--it is all black
magic, and I'm glad I finally got it working. But these files
are the ones you should try first if you have a card with the
Davicom 9102 chipset.
Good luck!

Use your "OS/2 Lan Services Installation/Configuration" icon to install
this driver, NOT the "MPTS" utility, for only the former correctly updates
the several system files correctly (this is true for any config change in
your WSeB Lan / Server setup, and is not specific to this nic driver)
Get to the NIC and Protocol Install screen and 'Additional drivers'
and point the dialogue screen to where you've unzip'd this pkg.
Continue to end of the process and reboot.
Refer to your protocol.ini and your ibmlan.ini files for particulars, as
usual.
Here, the Davicom is first in the 'Add Adapter' list, so is therefore lan0 ,
and the IntelPro nic is 2nd, at lan1.
A 'Virtual lan adapter' is third on our machine, BUT BE Careful to review
and copy down any address for that adapter, if it exists on your system, as
if you delete and re-order your nic's you'll have to apply that
virtual adapter's address again (via 'Edit')
