1.  There is a way to set up networking (so the machine has a "name" and 
the others can find it) in DOS, but it's been so long since I found the 
info (and the DOS machine is still down) I don't have any idea where I 
found it. Google <G>
2.  Although the DOS machine could not network with the other two 
computers on the router, it had no problems working with the router to 
get/maintain clean internet connect & transfers.  (At one point there 
was  a W2K laptop, 2 XP desktops, and Arachne w/DOS using the router 
simultaneously.  And yes, I have bunches switches for sharing both input 
and output devices.)
