The NDIS 3.1 protocol that you added to Network Setup does not function properly.

If you add an NDIS 3.1 protocol to Windows 95 and you use ODI drivers, the appropriate frame type is not added to the NET.CFG file.

To correct this problem, manually add the appropriate frame type to the NET.CFG file.

The Network Setup for Microsoft Windows for Workgroups 3.11 adds four frame types to the NET.CFG file:

   FRAME ETHERNET_802.2
   FRAME ETHERNET_802.3
   FRAME ETHERNET_II
   FRAME ETHERNET_SNAP
				

When you install an NDIS protocol, it can find the frame type because it is already available. On some occasions, the behavior of Windows for Workgroups version 3.11 can block access to your Novell NetWare server.

Rather than add all frame types to the NET.CFG file, Windows 95 requires that you add them manually.
