Question : os2,ibm dial up tcpip
|
|
I have a pc340 with os2 warp version 3 operating system. I am using using netscape navigator 2.02 to connect to the internet, with the ibm dial up for tcp ip version 2 revision 1.8h.
I get connected to the internet, but the ibm dial up for tcp ip does not get past the link and ppp, therefore netscape never loads.
It was suggested that maybe there was a fix for the tcp ip version I was using??? I have been to the tcp ip pages from ibm, but had trouble determining which one I needed, or if I needed one at all.
Do you have any suggestions for me... settings, fixes???
Thank you [email protected]

Tell me who is your ISP. The configuration of the dialer is a little tricky depending on the ISP. For instance netcom requires a # in front of your userid on the first page of the dialer setup but not on the other pages. If you have netcom they have tech notes for various dialers including OS/2 Warp. as far as fixes are concerned you should be able to connect to the net even without the fixes, however, once connected there is an icon in Warp Connect, which will get you the the page to Retrieve Software Updates. If you don't have Warp Connect then you really do need to get updates soon, but get connected first. There are a few ISPs who will not take the time to help you with configuring your dialer, but almost every nationwide ISP has docs for OS/2 users.
