Re: [Freedos-user] Dial-up emulation?

Here is a neat summary of the DOS PPP drivers: http://www.oldskool.org/guides/tvdog/internet.html#I ...but, someone has already raised this question: Do you have a "counterpart"? I mean - a dial-in service answering with a modem and a PPP stack. Or at least a null-modem connection to a PPP

Re: [Freedos-user] Dial-up emulation?

Hello there Brandon, to me the key question is - what do you expect of Qmodem? What would you like to achieve in / by using that program? I've never used it, but I figure it would be a "terminal emulator" with some added candy. An analog (predecessor, really) of Putty or Hyperterminal in

I didn't grow up on that part of DOS. I know basic commands like DIR, COPY, TYPE etc., but all this talk about DOS drivers bamboozles me. Get Outlook for Android From: Jose Senna via Freedos-user Sent: Wednesday, April 24, 2024 2:59:00 PM
