When DOS was still my primary OS, networking wasn’t really a thing. Sure, I had 
a fax/modem and connected via dial-up to a couple BBS and eventually even the 
Internet. But as for actual networking, I didn’t see much of that until late 
Win3.11. That’s more or less to say... I’m no DOS networking expert.

Rugxulo originally did some network card detection and network configuration in 
his MetaDOS side project.

FDNET was based on his work in MetaDOS

But, he was not directly involved with or responsible for  FDNET. I don’t 
expect he will be interested in improving the package.

Actually, I’ve asked several times if anyone was interested in taking over 
FDNET to make improvements and maybe increase hardware support. But, no one has 
ever shown any interest in doing that.

So, IDK if it’s even worth updating the FDNET license and resolving any other 
issues. Or, just drop it completely.
