DOS Compatibility Cards: Use Classic Networking

TOPIC

After installing the System 7.5 Update 2.0, I am unable to do networking from the DOS side of my Power Macintosh 6100 DOS Compatible. I have also tried this on an LC 630 DOS Compatible and a Performa 640 DOS Compatible. None of these are able to do networking with Open Transport, but they work fine with Classic Networking.

DISCUSSION

Open Transport 1.1 is supported with DOS Compatibility Cards and PC Setup 1.5 on the following Power Macintosh computers:

Power Macintosh 5400/120
Power Macintosh 7200/120
Power Macintosh 7600/120
Power Macintosh 8500/132 and 8500/150
Power Macintosh 9500/150

Open Transport is not supported with the DOS Compatibility Cards on computers not listed above. For DOS networking, on computers not listed above, Apple recommends using Classic Networking by selecting this option in the Network Software Selector found in the Apple Extras folder.
