I have just got Warp 4 and I cannot configure TCP/IP to work with my
modem. The dialler works fine; it initialises the modem and seems to
make a connection but nothing works: no Netscape, no PMMail, nothing.
Is there any information in the TCP/IP configuration notebook (or
anywhere else) I should provide? Please help by answering in this
newsgroup. Thanks.

Do you get error messages? If so, what are they?

Hi Peter,

you provided by far to little info for us.=20
How do You know your dialer makes a connection at all? What provider=20=

do you call? What kind of connection should be made (slip, ppp ..)?=20
What does the dialer say?
Do you have a dialin-script? Do you get asked for your Password and=20
Login ID? Which Dialer do you use? Is an IP-Adress assigned?
Please give some more info,

Michael.

hmmm...well, how does it "not work"?
what kind of error messages do you get?

can you tell if the connection negotiates at all PAST a simple modem to
modem connection?

does your provider use an "automatic" logon protocol like CHAP or PAP?
or, does your provider suggest a script to use with win3/95/NT? if so, post
it here (without your password info)

Some good setup help for DOIP is at:
http://204.146.46.90/ppp/
http://www.gate.net/~lstone/slipinfo.html
http://www.nhn.ou.edu/~boyd/pppfaq.html

you might want to try the InJoy dialer, most find it a lot easier to setup
(and quicker/better to use after setup (look for injoy1_1.zip at all the
usual places, or the source www.fx.dk/injoy)

Hello Peter,

What error do you get? In TCPCFG on the routing tab do you have a
default route?

Good Luck,
John G.
