G4 NIC

Tämä liittyy siis MacG4:ään. Ninkus toi: http://www.apple.com/powermac/

Siinä on verkkokortti. Verkkokortti toimii tietyillä asetuksilla ja kysymys kuuluu: Tietääkö joku mahdollisesti täällä mitkä ovat tuon kortin oletusasetukset? Eli 10 vai 100 MB/s ja Full Duplex vai Half Duplex?

Ja josko joku mahdollisesti tietäisi miten tuon kortin asetukset voisi konfiguroida manuaalisesti?

Kiitän mielenkiinnosta.

Olen käyttänyt Ethernetiä kai kahdeksan vuotta, en ole konffannut sitä koskaan. En edes tiedä miksi niin tekisin. Mitä hyödyt konffauskesta, vai onko kysessä pelkkä akateeminen mielenkiinto.

Uusimmissa ja nopeimmissa Maceissa on gigan ehternet, vanhemmissa ja kannettavissa yleensä 10/100 Mb/s.

AppleCare-dokumenteissa on tällaista tietoa ja siellä on myös softaa:

•    Support
•    Notes About Duplexer

Introduction

The Apple iMac, the Power Macintosh G3 (Blue and White), and the PowerBook G3 (Bronze Keyboard) uses auto negotiation to determine what speed (10 Mbit or 100 Mbit) and duplex (half or full) to use for the Built in Ethernet. Duplexer is an unsupported system extension that allows you to disable the auto negotiation and to use a set speed (10 Mbit or 100 Mbit) and duplex (Full or Half) for the built in Ethernet of an Apple iMac, a Power Macintosh G3 (Blue and White), or a PowerBook G3 (Bronze Keyboard).

Duplexer is intended for use on both Server and Client Macintosh computers.

Installation and Documentation

Copy the system extension with the desired speed and duplex setting to your system folder and restart your computer. For example, if you wanted to run at Full Duplex 100 Mbit, then you would copy the extension named "Duplexer100Full" to your system folder. Do not copy more than one duplexer file to your system folder - only the first one will work.

Please note: after the computer has restarted, you can use the Apple System Profiler to determine the current speed and duplex setting of your built in Ethernet.


Requirements for Running Duplexer

Apple iMac, Power Macintosh G3 (Blue and White), or PowerBook G3 (Bronze Keyboard) using built in Ethernet, and is independent of the version or language of the Mac OS system software installed; however, this software does not work with Mac OS X. Note: This software is not for the iMac with slot-loading CD-ROM drives, Power Mac G4, or iBook.



Support

Duplexer is an unsupported tool and therefore is not supported by Apple Computer, Inc.


Notes About Duplexer

General
•    Do not rename the extensions and they must load as early as possible.
•    All failures and errors are printed directly to the screen. It will overwrite anything on the screen and will not "redraw" nicely. This is the only way to show errors at this time.

Duplexer Resource Format
•    You can use a standard resource editing program (like ResEdit) to customize it. Only make changes on a copy of the files.
•    Set the 'PREF' #128 "debugFlag" to be 0x00000001 to see various progress and debugging information printed directly to your screen.
•    Set the 'PREF' #129 "Duplex Setting" to one of the following settings:
0x00000001 to get 10 Mbit, half duplex
0x00000002 to get 10 Mbit, full duplex
0x00000003 to get 100 Mbit, half duplex
0x00000004 to get 100 Mbit, full duplex
0x00000005 to get Auto Negotiation (or just remove Duplexer from the system folder)

Tuohan selittääkin... asiakkailla on ollut ongelmia ja niiden vuoksi on NICcien konfigurointi aina silloin tällöin tarpeen.

Onko sulla tietoa voiko Gigabit-NICciä asettaa fixed-moodiin? Tai GB-kuitukortista? Entä onko OS-X:lle tarjolla vastaavaa työkalua?
