SUMMARY
When you use the MS-DOS client 3.0 with the Cogent EM110 PCI network card, TCPIP, NWLINK or NetBEUI does not work. However, the network interface card (NIC) works fine with Windows NT.



MORE INFORMATION
The Drvlib (currently Windows NT 3.51) does not have a driver for the Cogent EM110 PCI network card. The one off the distribution disk that was shipped with the Lan card must be used for the MS-DOS client. When using the three protocols listed above, you will see the following symptoms:

NetBEUI - Binds and loads, but is not be able to connect to anyone

NWLink - Same symptoms as NetBEUI

TCPIP - Hangs when loading TCPTSR.EXE.



WORKAROUND
Cogent Tech support has a new NDIS2 driver on their BBS and CompuServe forum (GO Cogent) that fixes this problem with their NDIS2 driver.

EM110 is manufactured by and is a trademark of Cogent Corporation, a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this product's performance or reliability.
