Q: My P45 motherboard has two onboard LANs. How do I set the Teaming function and combine both onboard LANs to be a team with more bandwidth in my system?(9/5/2008) A: Before setting Teaming function, please make sure if your Switch (or Router) could support Teaming (IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation) function. (For example: D-Link DGS-3100…)
Then, please refer to following steps to set "Teaming function"...
1. Install RtkTeaming driver ver.1.0.0.51 from Motherboard Support CD
