Auto Select Media Type
The Auto Select Media Type function is implemented by all
drivers contained on the 3C59X EtherDisk diskette supplied
with the 3C592 EISA adapter. This includes NetWare ODI drivers
and NDIS 2.01 drivers. It also includes NDIS 3.0 drivers for
Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95, and Windows NT

.
The NDIS drivers function with 386 and later processors.
If you have one of these drivers installed, as soon as you
connect a network cable to the system, the Auto Select
Media Type function will detect the type of cable making the
connection and automatically select that media type. If you
change the type of network cable connected to the adapter,
you must reload the driver in order for the Auto Select Media
Type function to detect the cable type.
If the driver is unable to detect what type of cable is
connected or whether there is any cable connected, the Auto
Select Media Type function defaults to the type of connector
that is stored internally in the EEPROM. The default setting for
the 3C592-COMBO adapter is 10BASE-T (twisted-pair).
