Yes, that is the correct orientation for the jumpers. The Fastpath 5 VROM will never work in a Fastpath 4, the hardware is completely different. When you get the chips back, make sure they are labelled odd/even and put them in the sockets I listed above. It should work in Shiva Net Manager after that. By default you must connect to the Fastpath on the Localtalk side to configure it with just the router and one computer connected. Than you can follow this tutorial to get it up and running (minus the VROM download part): http://www.walshcomptech.com/fastpath5/upnrunning.htm

You will need K-STAR 9.1.2 as a Fastpath 4 with its 256k of RAM can't run 9.2.

This download should have K-STAR 9.1.2 and Shiva Net Manager if you need it: ftp://ftp.ultimate.com/FastPath/shiva-ftp/distrib/fastpath/9.1.2/
