What kind of network adapter is installed in my T22?

#1 Post by Mr.T » Thu Oct 14, 2004 4:25 am

Hi

sry for my very bad english but the german thinkpad forum couldnt help me.

i have bought a used t22 thinkpad (Modell Nummer: 2647-8EG) windows 2000 is installed but some components couldn´t be identified. for example the onboard network lan adapter. i thought that it would be no problem to install the network drivers but the hardware is only called "Ethernet Adapter" . I´m not sure if it is an 3com or Intel network card. i have installed the 3com drivers but then i got the message, that no 3com nic could be found. i have saved a intel network driver too but if i select the driver .inf file windows lists over 20 different intel network cards. but i have no idea which network adapter is exactly installed. no idea which manufacturer and no type. i hope you can understand my problem. an exact model name would help me an a driver link too.

thx

Looks like the person you brought the card from might have changed the hardware. you might want to ask them. the machine usually ship with an intel mini-pci card. also, both win 2000 and win xp have drivers for the cards that ibm ship with the t2x series.

Mr. T,

Open the unit up and look at the card!
