ho do i use lanacfg

by  coorsman  Posted    (Edited  )
lanacfg is a dos program.
copy lanacfg program to c:\


Open a command prompt (dos window)

type in:

lanacfg showlanapaths <enter>
this will display all adapters and their lana numbers

if you see one with 0 then you will need to change it to another number that is not being used lets use 9 for an exaple.

do this by typing in:
lanacfg setlananumber 0 9 <enter>

check it:
lanacfg showlanapaths <enter>

find the new adapter description in the list - lets say its 5:

lanacfg setlananumber 5 0 <enter>

check it:
lanacfg showlanapaths <enter>

type in:
exit <enter>

reboot computer.
