I am attempting to connect a 486 running win95 to the internet.*
The network adapter is a Novel/Anthem NE2000 compatible (from the auto-detect hardware wizard); I'm using the provided Microsoft TCP/IP protocol, and Client for Microsoft Networks.
My Network config. panel looks like:
Client for Microsoft Networks.........set to Quick logon
NE2000 Compatible.....................Enhanced mode 32 & 16 bit NDIS driver
....................Bindings: TCP/IP,
.................IRQ: 5, I/O address 300-31F (no conflicts)
TCP/IP.................IP Address: 192.168.1.95
.................Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
.................Gateway: 192.168.1.254
.................Bindings: Client for Microsoft Networks
Primary Network Logon: Windows
Ping, telnet, ftp .... neither or these work. Neither does Internet Explorer. (however, I can load the crynwr NE2000.COM driver successfully from the command line, and see my Ethernet Address).
Running the Internet Setup Wizard (msie20.exe from ftp.micrsoft.com) doesnt help either.
Any ideas on getting the computer connected?
*because Windows 95 is an awesome and a hugely underrated operating system **
**but not including the part where you have to restart your computer dozens and dozens of times as you troubleshoot/reconfgure settings in the control panel.
