OK
I have Warp 4 it has had Fixpak 15 and devicedriver pack 2 applied, I now need to upgrade/update my TCP/IP and MPTS so I will be able to use Firefox and other Mozilla based products as opera 5.1 (the only browser I can get to work) is a bit old
Mozilla Minimum requirements
Quote# MPTS version 5.3 or higher
# TCP/IP version 4.1 or higher
Thanks in advance
edit should have added
I have read a bit on the warpupdate site, but that has left me more confused as I am unsure of the version of mpts I have (tcp/ip appears to be version 4)
Look for OS2MT and try that... it will help you update many things, including OS/2 components...

Why does the path say C:\\
Isnt that wrong?
Hi,
I've also just reinstalled Warp 4 and am now updating my system completely using the "Advise, download and install packages" tab using OS2MT. I found the best way to get it working was from a fresh install of warp with no other drivers installed and have left my system with default VGA support. Also, it's very important to place VROBJ.DLL in your Libpath statement in your config.sys file. After restarting my machine with updated config.sys, I installed OS2MT from the commandline after which started OS2MT for the first time and first checked for updates to OS2MT using the "Update OS2MT" tab before going ahead.
Only problem I'm having so far is very slow download speeds, 3.3k/s vs 1024k/s on my XP and SLED10 box. Could someone please advise where to change my MTU settings for optimal throughput. What are optimal settings for TCP/IP? I have a Realtek RTL8169 based ethernet card connected to a Zyxel P-320W router for internet access etc.
Thanks in advance,
John.

Hi Nigel,
Uninstall OS2MT, then re-install OS2MT in the root directory... (ie: C:\OS2MT) - Then try again... dont change any of it's paths or folder locations...

Hi All
Thanks for the replies, i am still here and reading them, unfortunately my host system popped its clogs, and i am slowly restoring everything
But once i have restored everything i will report back with results
Thanks guys

Ok I have updated to the latest version of OS2MT, run the auto update script it downloads everything fine
However i cannot get the install to complete it keeps hanging
When it reboots it hangs after the blue OS/2 splash screen with this error

Route:command failed: File exists
Press enter to continue,
I press enter and it carries on it's merry way
A dos prompt comes up and lies race across it telling me various things are being unshrunk or exploded they all go fine without any errors then I get the following

And thats about where i am stumped, I was going to post this at the OS2MT yahoo group, but it doesn't seem to be getting any visits, either that or no-one i having problems
edit-----------------------
everytime I try to open Opera 5.1, I now get the window list box
Update
Cause I know you're all waiting with bated breath
I now have firefox installed and working
the error seems to be related to the TCPIP_43_2334 package, when I selected not to install it, everything else installed fine, and seems to be working ok
And the OS2MT yahoo group has sprung back to life as well, so I got a lot of help from the Author of the program
Thanks all OS2MT rocks as a program, and I wouldn't have known about it without your help
