Follow these steps carefully to install your network card:

1. பவர் ஆஃப் மற்றும் துண்டிக்கவும்: உங்கள் கணினியை முழுவதுமாக அணைத்துவிட்டு, சுவர் கடையிலிருந்து மின் கேபிளைத் துண்டிக்கவும்.
2. கணினிப் பெட்டியைத் திற: மதர்போர்டை அணுக உங்கள் கணினி உறையின் பக்கவாட்டுப் பலகத்தை அகற்றவும்.
3. Locate PCI Express Slot: Identify an available PCI Express (PCIe) slot on your motherboard. The card requires a PCIe x1 slot or larger (e.g., x4, x8, x16).
4. ஸ்லாட் கவரை அகற்று: Carefully remove the metal slot cover from the back of your computer case corresponding to the chosen PCIe slot. If installing in a small form factor PC, you may need to replace the standard bracket on the network card with the included low-profile அடைப்புக்குறி.
5. நெட்வொர்க் கார்டைச் செருகவும்: Align the network card with the PCIe slot and press it firmly and evenly until it is securely seated. Ensure the bracket is flush with the back of the case.
6. பாதுகாப்பான அட்டை: Secure the network card with the screw or latch mechanism provided by your computer case.
7. கேஸை மூடிவிட்டு மீண்டும் இணைக்கவும்: Replace the computer case side panel and reconnect all cables, including the power cable.
8. Power On and Install Drivers: Power on your computer. Once the operating system loads, insert the provided Support CD-ROM to install the necessary drivers. Alternatively, you can download the latest drivers from the Digitus official webஇயக்கி நிறுவலை முடிக்க திரையில் உள்ள வழிமுறைகளைப் பின்பற்றவும்.

இயக்க வழிமுறைகள்

Once the network card is physically installed and drivers are successfully loaded, you can begin using it:

1. ஈதர்நெட் கேபிளை இணைக்கவும்: Plug a standard RJ45 Ethernet cable from your network router, switch, or modem into the RJ45 port on the newly installed network card.
2. இணைப்பைச் சரிபார்க்கவும்: Observe the LED indicators on the RJ45 port. Typically, one LED indicates link activity (data transfer) and the other indicates connection speed (e.g., green for Gigabit, amber for 100 Mbps). Refer to the image below for LED locations.
3. பிணைய கட்டமைப்பு: Your operating system should automatically detect the new network connection. You may need to configure network settings (e.g., IP address, DNS) if your network does not use DHCP.
4. சோதனை இணைப்பு: திற a web browser or use network diagnostic tools to confirm internet access and network connectivity.

சரிசெய்தல்

If you encounter issues with your network card, refer to the following troubleshooting tips:

• நெட்வொர்க் இணைப்பு இல்லை:
  • Ensure the Ethernet cable is securely connected to both the network card and your router/switch.
  • Verify that the network card is properly seated in the PCIe slot.
  • Check if the network card drivers are correctly installed in your operating system's Device Manager. Reinstall drivers if necessary.
  • Test with a different Ethernet cable or port on your router/switch.
• மெதுவான நெட்வொர்க் வேகம்:
  • Ensure your router/switch supports Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbps).
  • Verify that the Ethernet cable is a Cat5e or Cat6 cable, suitable for Gigabit speeds.
  • Check for updated drivers for the network card.
  • Confirm that your operating system's network settings are configured for full duplex and Gigabit speed (if applicable).
• இயக்கி நிறுவல் சிக்கல்கள்:
  • Ensure you are installing the correct drivers for your operating system version (e.g., Windows 10, 64-bit).
  • Temporarily disable antivirus software during driver installation if it interferes.
  • Try installing drivers in compatibility mode if experiencing issues on newer operating systems.
