Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Sorry if this has been done to death..

    Is there a way to trick dosbox into thinking the wifi connection on my laptop is a modem??

    I want to see if I can get dos based web brosers working thru it.

    Not sure to be honest. Try the wiki below or google.

    The virtual modem has been designed to simulate a modem as closely as possible. Like real modems, the virtual modem uses a COM port assigned through the dosbox.conf file. The virtual modem also makes use of the Hayes® AT command set to issue commands to the modem. The following is an example entry in the dosbox.conf file for modem configuration:

    [modem]
    modem=true
    comport=2
    listenport=23

    “modem=true” enables the modem emulation. To disable the emulation change it to read “modem=false”. DosBox has two COM ports, 1 and 2. Depending on the software compatibility, you may need to change this to 1, though the default setting, as shown here, should work in most cases. Finally, listenport sets the port that listens for incoming DosBox modem calls. Port 23 is typically the telnet port. For simplicity, leaving this value as is should provide for the easiest setup once in DosBox.
