Re: 8570vampire drinks your blood.......

Hi!

I want to connect to the Internet using my NIC, but I don't want a
browser setup that keeps trying to use my modem instead of my
NIC.....I really want to find a browser that is Windows 3.1 compatible
and is LAN preferential.

Anybody want to throw in some hints here?

You will need a TCP/IP stack for your Ethernet connection, and by default,
Windows 3.11 did not include one. I'm not sure if that will solve your
problem, but if you don't already have that piece, you want the 32-bit
TCP/IP 3.11b update for Windows for Workgroups 3.11.

Amazingly enough, M$ still has it:

Happy surfing!
