SYMPTOMS
After you install a Cirel FPX X.25 network adapter in your Windows NT-based computer, the network adapter may not function properly.



CAUSE
This issue can occur if you install a Cirel FPX X.25 network adapter with the Cirel driver software. The Cirel driver software does not install two values in the Windows NT registry that are required for this network adapter to function properly.



RESOLUTION
WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.

To resolve this issue, manually add the two missing registry values:
 * 1) Click Start, click Run, type regedt32, and then click OK.
 * 2) On the Windows menu, click HKEY_LOCAL_ MACHINE on Local Machine.
 * 3) Double-click the \SOFTWARE\Cirel\WntFpx\BOARD\FPX01 folder.
 * 4) On the Edit menu, click Add Value, type FpxNumber, click REG_DWORD in the Data Type box, and then click OK.
 * 5) Type 10 in the Data box, click Hex, and then click OK.
 * 6) Double-click the \SOFTWARE\Cirel\WntFpx\BOARD\FPX01 folder.
 * 7) On the Edit menu, click Add Value, type Link, click REG_SZ in the Data Type box, and then click OK.
 * 8) Type X25 in the Data box, and then click OK.
 * 9) Quit Registry Editor, and then restart the computer.
