Well, here at GB7DBY I have a BPQ ethernet port running ok.
There are a number of ways of doing it, some maybe better than how I do
it, but mine is COMPLETELY STABLE.
If you are trying to use Windows then it is a slightly different settup.
For my DOS system :-
In Autoexec.bat , the relavent items :-
CD\BPQ408A
LSL
NE2000
IPXODI
ODIDRV 125
BPQCODE
CD\FBB
APPEL
In my BPQ408A directory :-
LSL.COM dated 05/11/92
NE2000.COM dated 10/03/93 - or use any other driver for ethernet card, most
cards are NE2000 compatible.
IPXODI.COM dated 23/04/93
ODIDRV.EXE
NET.CFG - this is a text file you have to construct,
mine is :-
Link Driver NE2000
PORT FCE0 - this is the ethernet card address.
INT 11 - this is the ethernet card interupt.
FRAME Ethernet_II
PROTOCOL BPQ 8FF ETHERNET_II
BPQPARAMS
ETH-ADDR FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
Then the relavent portion of BPQCFG.TXT
PORT
ID=Ethernet port
TYPE=EXTERNAL
PROTOCOL=KISS
INTLEVEL=125 MUST BE THE SAME AS THE PARAM IN ODIDRV
CHANNEL=A
QUALITY=10
MAXFRAME=7
TXDELAY=1
SLOTTIME=20
PERSIST=250
PACLEN=240
RETRIES=15
RESPTIME=50
FRACK=2000
FULLDUP=1
ENDPORT
It may seem messy, the way I have it setup, but it WORKS !!
Use an *EARLY* version of IPXODI and LSL, as the later ones don't always work.
If you need any copies of any of these files, then I can send them to you.
