Web Pack Installation

# Intel® PRO Network Connections Software and Drivers

## Installation

Download the self-extracting archive and run it. When you run it, it will extract the files to a temporary directory, run the installation wizard, and remove the temporary files when the installation is complete. All language files are embedded in this archive. You do not need to download an extra language pack.

## Extracting the Files Without Installing

This self extracting archive supports the following command line parameters:

Parameter | Description
/e | Do not automatically start the installation process.
/s | Extract the files silently.
/f <destination path> | Destination path where the archived files will be extracted to.

For example, to only extract the contents of the webpack to a specific folder (and not run the installation), type the following:

`<webpack filename> /s /e /f <destination path>`

## Plug and Play Update

After you extract the files from the archive using the /e parameter, you can use them to do a plug and play update or install.

1. Start Windows Device Manager
2. Right click on the NIC you want to update and select Update Driver.
3. Follow the directions in the Hardware Update Wizard to select the drivers you extracted.

## Using the DxSetup.exe utility

DxSetup.exe installs the Intel PRO Network Connections drivers and software. It automatically detects the system language and launches in that language.

#### DxSetup.exe command line switches:

Switch | Description

/q[r|n]

silent install options.

r | Reduced GUI Install
n | Silent install

/l[i|w|e|a]

log file option.

i | log status messages.
w | log non-fatal warnings.
e | log error messages.
a | log the start of all actions.

#### DxSetup.exe Public Properties

Property | Definition
BD | "0", deselect / do not execute SetupBD. "1", execute SetupBD to install the drivers (default setting). NOTE: BD should only be set to 0 if the Base Drivers have already been installed prior to running DxSetup.exe
ANS | "0", deselect / hide ANS. "1", select ANS (default setting).
DMIX | "0", deselect / hide Intel PROSet feature. "1", select Intel PROSet feature (default setting).
SNMP | "0", deselect / do not install the SNMP Agent (default setting) "1", select / install the SNMP Agent.

NOTES:

- BD, ANS and DMIX are selected by default.
- The ANS property should only be set to ANS=1 if DMIX=1 is set. If DMIX=0 and ANS=1, the ANS=1 is ignored and only the base driver will be installed.
- Public properties are case sensitive. All characters are uppercase with no white space between characters. For example:

> `DxSetup.exe /qn ANS=1`

> Any white space in "ANS=1" makes the setting invalid. "ans=1" is not a valid setting.

### Command line examples

1. The following launches a typical install silently:

   > `DxSetup.exe /qn /liew C:\install.log`

2. How to install components but deselect ANS. Set the ANS=0 in the command line:

   > `DxSetup.exe /qn ANS=0 /liew C:\install.log`
