i have a computer using netware 5 ,windows 2000
professional and is connectected to the Internet through
dial network modem.This computer connects internet
through another computer (gateway).
During booting after login into the network my computer
often hangs,thus requiring a restart, on many occasions
while on the internet it hangs also requiring a
restart.what could be the problem?
 
is it the netware box thats connecting to the internet via dialup or the
w2kbox?
