NeXTSTEP 
Network driver
 for NE2000 compatible Ethernet adapter




NE2000.config is a driver for NE2000 compatible ISA Ethernet adapter for NeXTSTEP 3.3. Only 16 bit versions with 16 Kb RAM are supported. This is freeware which may be used non-commercially.

Installation:
If the card you want to install has jumpers you have to use these to select the hardware settings.
Many of the more up-to-date NE2000 clones are jumper-less. These adapter require the selection of the I/O-address an the interrupt with the supplied configuration software.

Before starting the hardware configuration the application Configure should be used to find a free interrupt and a free I/O-address.

Example:
	IRQ			10
	I/O Base		0x300
	Connector 		BNC
	BootROM		deactivated


By double-clicking on the icon NE2000.config the driver will be installed on inquiry.(copied to /private/Drivers/i386/ ). You have to add the network adapter to the system configuration by using the application Configure. In addition the data for the I/O-address and for the interrupt has to be set and saved. After rebooting the computer the network adapter should work properly.
