Re: [Freedos-user] Packet Driver
Just tossing in my two cents, but you require the dos driver for the card, and there should be no reason why it will not work in freedos as they do in other editions of dos. I have one in my desktop and another in my laptop running pure dos and using a driver from the card manufacturer, dlink in the first case com3 in the second. the wireless aspect might make a difference though? both of mine are for wired setups.

Re: [Freedos-user] Packet Driver
Tomdean, I think it should be clear now that it isn't very likely your wireless adapter can be directly controlled from DOS (Free or otherwise). A workable solution would be to boot Windows or Linux on the PC in question and use their wireless card drivers, then boot FreeDOS in a virtual machine. The virtual machine simulates a wired Ethernet interface which is no problem to bridge onto the PC's wireless network adapter. Is there any reason why this solution wouldn't work? Is there a specific reason why you are trying to boot onto real hardware? Cordata -Original Message- From: Thomas D.

Re: [Freedos-user] Packet Driver
tomdean, Yes, you need a packet driver. However I'm not sure about running a wireless card under DOS - packet drivers are typically not capable of configuring wireless security. They normally operate with a wired ethernet port. Others will know more about this than I. Is there a reason you are running on real hardware compared to a virtual machine? Packet drivers can be found at one of two places: 1) www.crynwr.com - many of these are open source. 2) The web site of whoever makes the Ethernet interface of your PC. This driver will likely be closed source. What applications are you trying to run?If they are basic FTP, Telnet, etc. you may want to look into mTCP as well.

[Freedos-user] Packet Driver install problem - New to Freedos
I just did a full clean install of Freedos and have only one small problem so far. When I tried to use the networking.internet capabilities it seems that I didn't get a packet driver for my ehternet card installed correctly or something When installing I noticed that when it tried to Configuring thru DHCP it failed everytime. My system is on a old eMachine computer which I have no idea what kind of ethernet card I have but Windows and Ubuntu used it OK. I am also on a home network with a router. Any help would be great...

From: tomleem [EMAIL PROTECTED] A peek at Fdauto.bat shows that your packet-driver aborts loading I see that my message from Oct-10 is blank on Sourceforge archives page so I will repost it here. -- Thanks, everyone.

Re: [Freedos-user] Packet Driver For Arachne Browser
Hi Lester, A peek at Fdauto.bat shows that your packet-driver aborts loading so i'll suggest you use this value: RTsPkt *_0x60_* -- RTsPkt.Com (v3.18, 1999-Aug-10) When it loads, the packet-driver should state very clearly that it installed OKay (int. vector, etc); i can display the Arachne.CFG file but i won't pay much attention to it: it's all GUI under Arachne! I wouldn't try to load a shim over an NDIS layer when all i need is to /get the right/ packet-driver. :-B Salutations, Avatar.GIF http://cf.geocities.com/dosinternet/Avatar.GIF Michel Samson (/alias DOSInterNet/Bicéphale/) - Take Surveys.

Re: [Freedos-user] Packet Driver For Arachne Browser
Thanks, Eric. RTSPKT loads from Fdauto.bat ok but Arachne still won't work (unable to initialize tcp/ip). Here are the specs again: Connection: DSL, modem + router Arachne browser: v1.90J1 NIC card: Realtek RTL8139/810x Family Fast Ethernet Packet Driver: RTSPKT.com The driver seems to be loading ok, I'm not sure if any switches should be enabled: http://img73.imageshack.us/img73/6280/10092006150639ch2.png http://img117.imageshack.us/img117/2142/10092006150713yl3.png I tried to setup Arachne in BOOT/DHCP with no results. Another approach was to enter IP address, etc. manually. Here is the screenshot of Arachne.cfg http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/6112/10092006151018wi2.png Still no luck. Any suggestions? Lester - Original Message - From: Eric Auer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Mon, 9 Oct 2006 18:31:14 +0200 (MEST) the driver which came with the card is called rtspkt, not sure if the driver used by freedos 1.0 has the same name, but it is quite possible. eric Lester Vedrox wrote: I'm trying to get Arachne browser running from DSL connection and I'm stuck at the problem with a packet driver. -- ___ Surf the Web in a faster, safer and easier way: Download Opera 9 at http://www.opera.com Powered by Outblaze - Take Surveys.
