>From D-Link's web Site:

Q: What is the 3 wire cable included with my Ethernet adapter?

A: The cable included with your NIC is a WOL or Wake On LAN cable. Wake on
LAN is an optional feature of the card and is not required for the NIC to
function properly. Some new motherboards do not need the WOL cable for Wake
on LAN to work. The support is built into the PCI slot, and in this case the
customer will have to reference the motherboard manual or manufacturer?s
website for setup information.

Both ends of the three wire cable are not the same. The connector with the
large key way will connect to the motherboard, and the smaller connector
will connect to the NIC. To use this optional feature you will need to have
additional software installed on your computer such as Magic Packet.


I don't believe the Starmax supports WOL.

Subject: Ethernet card for 5500/200


Ok, assuming that there is no such thing as a stupid question.....

I just purchased a D-Link DFE-530TX+  PCI Ethernet card for my Starmax
5500/200 running 8.6

I've never had the pleasure of doing this before, so was wondering what
I'm supposed to do with the small green and red wire included with the
card.  The installation booklet that came with the card doesn't mention
this wire at all.  If anyone has any idea please let me know.  Thanks!

Tom
