DUN12 BENEFITS [2]
|
WINSOCK2Winsock2 is a complete redesign of the Winsock architecture. Winsock2 consists of an updated TCP/IP stack, updated TCP/IP utilities and updated Winsock 2 components. It fixes several problems including slow performance with some IPX applications and incompatibility with Internet Explorer 4.0 that could cause a page fault. |
FIX a PROBLEMThere's a slight problem!
|
ORDER of INSTALLATIONSuggested Order of Installation 1 UnimodemV driver (for Windows 95A), and reboot There have been suggestions that Winsock2 should be installed when in Safe Mode. This Site can not confirm that this is necessary, and does not use Safe Mode for its installation. Feedback on this will be appreciated. |
DUN13DUN13 (2.2MB) was released by Microsoft in Sept 1998. This basically adds Windows 98 connection functionality to Windows 95. It is still too soon for a proper assessment.

NOTES [1] • If you have already used the MTU-Speed utility, you can initially set these four settings to Remove (allowing Windows 95/98 to use it's new defaults) - MaxMTU, RWIN, MTUAutoDiscover and MTUBlackHoleDetect . You can return to this utility to reset MTU to 576 and, probably, RWIN to 2144; some users have claimed they do not require this adjustment after DUN 12b is installed - it is likely you will need to use MTU-Speed.
|
NOTES [2]• You can expect to find wsock32.dll in _:\Windows\SYSTEM (it is normal to find a backup copy in _:\Windows\ws2bakup if you installed Winsock2) |
