Here's my problem.
I want to access my Windows Network via parallel port cable on a 386 laptop with Windows 3.11. I have laplink, but I want to access my other Windows computers via the the parallel cable for internet ect...
I heard a while ago, that there was software called "winroute" that I could load, both on Windows 3.11 nad on my XP/2000 computers.
I know there are Xircom pocket ethernet adapters, that goto parallel to cat 5 , but I don't want to try and find one.
Anyone know if this "winroute" software works with a parallel cable? Any sugestions?
Thanks!
Happy

WinRoute not W3.x compatible

LPT no support for W3.x

PCAnywhere no support for W3.x

Maybe you need to do a google search for an older version of this type of software?
