Termite TCP ???

[melott]

I'm having a problem with Termite TCP.
I know its not widely used (copyrited).
I've been using it for about 15 years,
but haven't been on-line with my Miggy
for a couple years now.
A few days ago I updated IBrowse to 2.4
and tried to go on-line.
It appears that Termite isn't conpatable
on the net anymore as I'm having a problem
with both IBrowse and Yam.

Anyone know what the problem is with Termite ?
Is it a setting or what ?

Any help will be greatly appreciated ........

You sure your dialup still works?

Yes... its working.
I can connect with the PC so the modem is OK and
I can connect with the A3000, but thats about it.
When I try to connect to email at my ISP it can't
find the address. When I start IBrowse it takes
forever to get my ISP home page, if I can even get it.
It seems by what is happening that somehow Termite may
not be compatable, but WHY, (a setting maybe)?
I tend to think Termite should still work.

just install genesis tcp and see if that works. it should be included on OS3.5/3.9 a demo is also on aminet

I have the OS 3.9 cd w/Genesis, I tried it a few years
ago when I first bought OS 3.9. I kind of thougt Termite
was better at the time, maybe I should try it again.
I would still like to know what the problem is with Termite.
I've tried adjusting the settings but that didn't seem to
help.

I know very little about termite, but perhaps it is not configuring the DNS server correctly?

While connected, try using IP addresses (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) instead of URL's?

Yes... I'm going to give that a try .........

A Termite update  :-D

I found my problem. My ISP had changed their DNS numbers
several months ago.
Termite requires the correct DNS address in the settings.
After I inserted the correct address everything works great.

IBrowse ver.2.4 runs MUCH faster than expected (exceptable).
Now I just have to see why Ver.2.4 isn't excepting the key.
Its running the Demo version.
I am a reguestered owner of ver 2.1.
Anyone have any ideas about the key problem ?

You cannot register V2.4, it's a demo only.

I know that from Amiga Future, I translated that text.

No .. thats not completly correct.......

If you are a reguestered owner of ver.2.xx (paid for the
upgrade from ver.1.xx) then the 2.xx key is supposed to
open the full version of 2.4.
Thats the way I understand IOSpirits memo.
Am I wrong ??

It's a shame that Termite TCP is for dialup (SLiP/PPP) only and doesnt support ethernet (SANA-II).

I'll check on that (read the docs)
Termite does support networking but I don't remember all
the details .....
I'll check the docs and post it.

That might be the OS4 OEM version. The plain downloadable demo will work with any 2.x keyfile.

Yes, I was talking about the OS4 OEM version. The OS3.9 version of IB2.4 WILL work with a keyfile - I'm using it now  :lol:

Sorry for the confusion by not explaining myself  :crazy:

Yes .. I'm running OS 3.9 ...... But my Key file isn't
working.

Any ideas why ??

I've re-installed twice, same thing.

@Alexh .........

I guess Termite is only a TCP. I checked the docs.
I thought there was something about networking but
sorry "No".
