The subject of this post is again my latest aquisition, a 486 laptop.
I installed Arachne web browser on this laptop out of curiosity. It works fine so now I am actually going to try and get it online.
First hurdle, I don't have dialup. I do however, have broadband and an ADSL modem
Second hurdle, I dont know anything about internet connections, cables, etc. etc.
So, My laptop has 2 ports on the back, that look like telephone extentions and are narrower than the cable from the modem to the modern computer. One labelled PHONE and the other LINE.
The modem itself broadcasts a wireless signal and also has 3 spare wired ports at the back for the wider (ethernet?) cable.
If it is impossible to set up broadband with arachne, tell me the name of a browser that will fit on a floppy that will and run under win 3.11 or FreeGEm or DOS 6.22
My ISP is BT Broadband
Thankyou
