Rebooting for a longer time (before starting PC) - that did it John. All OK now. RobF: Glad you got it working and thanks for letting us know. BTW many of the things ISPs hand out that they call "Modems" are really a combination of a modem and a router. It is the router part that has a DHCP server that hands out IP addresses to connected PCs.

But if it's convenient and you still have the WinSocket utility for '98SE, I'd appreciate your posting, or emailing (you'll see where it's scrambled) r eff oh . I will post it alt.winsock in a few minutes. Warning: The program just RUNS when you double click on it, does not ask you for a confirmation, just starts (it does ask for confirmations later, but it's "too late" already ;-) The first time I got a router I could NOT get it on the net, tech support told me to upgrade to XP, etc. I can't remember HOW I found this program - it was written by some guy at Boston University and is virtually unknown. I ran it and everything worked perfectly upon the reboot. I was blown away. What else can I tell you. /If/ things **** up, the program DOES make backup copies of your 2 registry files (ext. "tom") with which you can replace the "new ones" in DOS (ideally using a decent DOS file manager - I use Xtree - instead of ****ing around with the attrib. command, etc.), and then everything will be as it was before - I know this because I just ran the program on this (currently perfectly working) machine (I like to check things before I post them for others) and afterwards I could not get a socket created - so I restored the two registry files and as you see, everything's fine. So - just so you know what you're dealing with. No help file or any help of any kind available, needless to say - Boston Univ. no longer has the file for DL since as we all know, no one uses anything but XP and later any more. Good luck. -- Of course, it is no easy matter to be polite; in so far, I mean, as it requires us to show great respect for everybody, whereas most people deserve none at all; and again in so far as it demands that we should feign the most lively interest in people, when we must be very glad that we have nothing to do with them. - Arthur Schopenhauer |
