Internet conectivity can be assured by loading the odipkt.com shim, together
with the network card's ODI driver. This eliminates the need of hunting for
DOS packet drivers. Also, the generic ODI NE2000 driver works almost for any
NE2000 compatible card (some OEM drivers may be buggy; this is the case with
my Surecom NE12 card). Odipkt comes together with Arachne.

Is this entirely within DOS? What OS is the network card's ODI driver for?
"Shim" suggests linking to a connection from non-DOS, as a DOS box within OS/2
or Windows.
