Compatible?

I am currently running Windows 98SE, I once tried to use ZAP Pro, and the thing crashed. That was a while ago. Is ZAP Pro compatible with Enternet 100 PPPOE software? I know the problem was not Win 98SE.

Hi robbeing
Although I don't use 98 or Enthernet 300 (there is no 100), I would suggest you go
here . There is a similiar discussion and possible solution for your situation. It has to do with setting an IP address for the NIC card and giving it a specific subnet. That prevents the DHCP from trying to get an address and confusing ZAP.
I would also suggest that you visit
this site to get more information.
If that doesn't help, come back here and I will try to re-install 98 and ZAP, to duplicate the problem and try to provide some assistance.
However, I would read the other threads in that forum as they deal exclusively with PPPoE and ZAP.
Good Luck

Freda, I have assigned an IP address to my nic card, and there IS such a thing as Enternet 100, because it is what I've been running for 2 years.I go help, and about, and there it is Enternet 100.But thanks for the Links, I'll do the reading.
specified address

After visiting the links provided by Freda, I saw that in my NIC card TCP the IP address I have (as suggested by Mindspring) is
10.0.0.2 with the subnet 255.255.255.0 that stopped stalls and freezes. Am I still OK with that address?

Hi robbeing
That should work, however, when I was using Enternet 300 (1.5b)I used this setting.
Try this setting
Windows 95, 98, ME
1. Right click on Network Neighborhood (My Network places)
2. Choose "Properties"
3. A new window will open
4. Highlight the TCP/IP bound to the Ethernet card that is connected to the DSL Modem
5. Click "Properties"
6. Choose the "IP Address" tab, specify, and give it an IP that is internal (like
192.168.xxx.xxx)
7. Set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0
8. "OK"
One other thing....
You may need to open ports 8863 and 8864 to allow EnterNet through your firewall.
Good Luck
Internal?

forgive me, but, what is an "internal" IP address? and how do I find one?

An "internal" IP address is a "non routable" address.
As a rule they all start with 192.xxx.xxx.xxx. You make it up and then give it the subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
Hope that helps.
