System Requirements
Before you install the Broadcom 440x 10/100 Integrated Controller, verify that your system meets the
requirements listed for your operating system:
Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 98 Second Edition,
and Windows ME Requirements
●Pentium-based computer that meets Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 98 Second Edition,
and Windows ME software requirements
●One open 32-bit or 64-bit PCI slot
●PCI v2.2 33/66 MHz Bus Interface
●128-MB RAM (minimum)
●Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 98 Second Edition, and Windows ME.
Linux Requirements
●Pentium-based computer that meets Linux software requirements
●One open 32-bit or 64-bit PCI slot
●PCI v2.2 33/66-MHz Bus Interface
●128 MB RAM (minimum)
NOTE: Although the driver should work with many Linux® kernel versions and distributions, it
has only been tested on Red Hat® 7.1, 7.2, AND 7.3 Linux distributions for i386 and IA64
(kernel version 2.4.x). Furthermore, the driver has only been tested as a loadable module.
Safety Precautions
WARNING: The adapter is being installed in a system that operates with voltages
that can be lethal. Before removing your system's cover, observe the following
precautions to protect yourself and to prevent damage to the system components.
●Remove any metallic objects or jewelry from your hands and wrists.
●Make sure to use only insulated or nonconducting tools.
●Verify that the system is powered OFF and unplugged before accessing internal
components.
●Installation or removal of adapters must be performed in a static-free environment.
The use of a properly grounded wrist strap or other personal antistatic devices and an
antistatic mat is strongly recommended.
Preinstallation Checklist
1. Verify that your computer meets the hardware and software requirements listed under System
Requirements.
2. Verify that your system is using the latest BIOS.
3. If your system is active, shut it down.
4. When system shutdown is complete, turn off the power and unplug the power cord.
5. Holding the adapter card by the edges, remove it from its shipping package and place it on an
antistatic surface.
6. Check the adapter for visible signs of damage, particularly on the card edge connector. Never
attempt to install any damaged adapter.
Installing the Adapter
The following instructions apply to installing the Broadcom 440X Integrated Controller in most
systems. Refer to the manuals that were supplied with your system for details about performing these
tasks on your particular system.
1. Review the Precautions and Pre-Installation Checklist. Before installing the adapter, ensure the
system power is OFF and unplugged from the power outlet, and that proper electrical grounding
procedures have been followed.
2. Remove the system cover, and select any empty PCI slot. If you do not know how to identify a
PCI slot, refer to your system documentation.
3. Remove the blank cover-plate from the slot that you selected.
4. Holding the PCI card by the edges, align the adapter’s connector edge with the PCI connector
dock in the system.
NOTE: The connector dock in a 32-bit PCI slot is shorter than in a 64-bit PCI slot.
Although the adapter is designed to fit in either slot type, when installed in a 32-bit PCI
slot, part of the adapter’s connector edge will remain undocked. This is perfectly normal.
5. Applying even pressure at both corners of the card, push the adapter card until it is firmly
seated in the PCI slot. When properly seated, the adapter’s port connectors are aligned with the
slot opening, and its faceplate is flush against the system chassis.
CAUTION: Do not use excessive force when seating the card, as this may
damage the system or the adapter. If the card resists seating, remove it from
the system, realign it, and try again.
6. Secure the adapter with the adapter clip or screw.
7. Replace the system cover and disconnect any personal antistatic devices.
8. Power the system on.
After the system returns to proper operation, the adapter hardware is fully installed. Go to Connecting
the network cables.
Connecting the Network Cables
The adapter has one RJ-45 connector used for attaching the system to an Ethernet copper-wire
segment. When automatic link negotiation is disabled, the port can be configured for 10 Mbit/s or 100
Mbit/s, signaling either half-duplex or full-duplex operation.
Perform the following procedure for connecting a network cable to the Broadcom 440X 10/100
Integrated Controller:
1. Prepare an appropriate cable. The table lists the cable requirements for connecting to
10/100BASE-T ports:
10/100BASE-T Cable Specifications
Port Type Connector Media Maximum Distance
10BASE-T RJ-45 Category 3, 4, or 5 UTP 100 meters (328 feet)
100BASE-T RJ-45 Category 5 UTP 100 meters (328 feet)
2. Connect one end of the cable to the Broadcom 440X 10/100 Integrated Controller.
3. Connect the other end of the cable to an RJ-45 Ethernet network port.
NOTE: After the cable is properly connected at both ends, the adapter port LEDs should
be functional. See Table 1 for a description of adapter port LED operation. For driver
installation and configuration instructions, refer to the software configuration for that
specific driver.

Installing the Driver Software
When Windows first starts after a new hardware device (such as a Broadcom Ethernet controller) has
been installed, or after the existing device driver has been removed, the operating system
automatically detects the new hardware and prompts you to install the driver software for that device.
When the Found New Hardware Wizard starts, click Cancel.
NOTE: A network device driver must be installed before the Broadcom Ethernet controller can
be used with your Windows operating system. Drivers are located on the installation CD.
To install the driver software
1. Insert the installation CD in the CD-ROM drive.
2. Open the Drivers folder, which contains the Setup.exe file, and then double-click Setup.exe.
3. Click Next, and then click Yes to agree to the License Agreement.
Updating the Driver Software
To update the driver software
1. Start Windows and log on. You must have network administrator permissions to update the
driver software.
2. In Control Panel, click System to view System Properties.
3. Click the Hardware tab, and then click Device Manager.
4. Right-click the name of the Broadcom 440X 10/100 Controller, and then click Update Driver.
5. Follow the on-screen instructions provided by the Hardware Update Wizard.
Viewing or Changing the Properties of the
Controller
To view or change the properties of the Broadcom Ethernet controller
1. In Control Panel, click or double-click Broadcom Control Suite 2.
2. Click the Advanced tab.
3. See Advanced for a detailed description of the available properties as well as for instructions for
viewing and changing the value of a particular property.
Removing the Driver Software
1. In Control Panel, double-click Add or Remove Programs.
2. Click Broadcom 440X 10/100 Integrated Controller, and then click Change/Remove.
3. Select Remove, and then click Next.
4. Click OK.
Setting Power Management Options
You can set Power Management options to allow the operating system to turn off the controller to save
power or to allow the controller to wake up the computer. If the device is busy doing something
(servicing a call, for example), however, the operating system will not shut down the device. The
operating system attempts to shut down every possible device only when the computer attempts to go
into hibernation. To have the controller stay on at all times, do not click the Allow the computer to
turn off the device to save power check box.
NOTES:
●To enable Wake on LAN (WOL) when the computer is on standby, select the Allow the
device to bring the computer out of standby check box.
●If you select Only allow management stations to bring the computer out of
standby, the computer can be brought out of standby only by Magic Packet, regardless
of the settings in Wake Up Capabilities.
