Well -- now I have lost my wired connection. I am on dial up connection at
the moment.

When I boot into either OS/2 Warp or eCS, I now get: Waiting for DHCP
client -- Did not get parameters.

I thought I might have developed a hardware problem, and I boot into
Windows (on this computer). At first Windows could not find the internet
connection either, then it started working fine. But when I boot back into
Warp, no DHCP.

This does not mean I do not have a hardward problem, but before I try a
different LAN adapter, do you have any suggestions for tweaking OS/2?

Thanks,
Sandy
