Arachne at FreeLists---The Arachne Fan Club!

Hello Mel!

OK, the first thing I would try is a different PPP TCP/IP driver...
instead of EPPPD, try WZPPP or LSPPP.  You may need
to setup the TCP/IP first, get the connection.  Then in the
Arachne Options, TCP/IP setup, choose to use the
"Resident Packet Driver".  Many newer ISPs sometimes
do not communicate well with EPPPD at higher modem
speeds (my experience anyway), which is the reason I
put WZPPP together.
For your assistance, the following is a simple DOS BATCH
program to utilize with WZPPP.  Edit the specifics for your
login data, ISP data (DNS, Nameserver, etc) then save it
as WIZDIAL.BAT, execute the BAT from your command line
or shell if preferred.  You can also REM (remark out) the
references to SETSCRN and WAIT, if not on your system.
HANGUP.BAT is similar, but really consists of one line:\
WZPPP /u
Don't forget to change the DIRECTORY references as well.
WZPPP is available from my DOS sites, try:
