PCMCIA Ethernet - Thinkpad - OS/2 Warp 3 Connect Help Needed
(1/1)
Marc Galloway:
I'm needing help if anyone has any suggestions. I have a Thinkpad 600e with OS/2 Warp 3 Connect installed. I'm having trouble getting the PCMCIA 3Com EtherLink III 3C589D card working. When booting up I get a error saying interface does not exist. Here are the steps I have taken with some pictures:
1. Installed PC Card Director for OS/2 version 4.12 - https://thinkpads.com/support/Thinkpad-Drivers/download.lenovo.com/lenovo/content/ddfm/600e.html
2. Installed 3COM 3C589 Etherlink III PCMCIA ethernet card NDIS driver https://www.os2site.com/sw/drivers/network/3com/589os2.zip
3. Configured TCP/IP and NETBUI

Lars:
Can you post your setup.cmd and also protocol.ini ?
The error does not sound as if this is HW or driver related. It rather sounds like TCP/IP not being set up correctly.
By the way: you might also consider applying the patch to the NDIS driver:

That might not strictly be necessary on your system but it surely won't hurt either. In addition, it will make the "3net_log.exe" utility work.
Finally, look here, it is about Warp 4 but since you are using Warp 3, it might apply nonetheless:
