                  Modem Assist & Windows 95 Tip sheet

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Disclaimer:  As of September 1, 1995, Modem Assist (4.0M release) is
             compatable with 16-bit applications in the Windows 95
             environment with the DLL.  However, we are not Win 95 
	     compliant - meaning, we do not support 32-bit applications
             nor do we support native Windows 95 programs.  Look for
             future release announcements pertaining to Modem Assist's
             32-bit release!

General Information
	o  After installing/upgrading to Windows 95, you must re-
           install Modem Assist.
        o  The Modem Assist Server (MSERVER.EXE) is not supported in
           the Windows 95 environment.
	o  The client TSR (MCLIENT.EXE) is not supported in the
           Windows 95 environment.  Therefore, DOS applications will
           not currently function with Modem Assist and Windows 95.
        o  The local client TSR for the server (MLCLIENT.EXE) is not
           supported in the Windows 95 environment.
        o  The Modem Assist client DLL (MCLIENT.DLL) functions
           properly in accordance with the disclaimer above.
        o  Increase TIMEOUT = statement in CLIENT.CON to 16.

General Windows 95 Information
        o  Be sure that COMM.DRV = MACOMM.DRV is in your SYSTEM.INI.
	o  Cross check the dates of your Modem Assist files and make
           sure you do not have different versions of Modem Assist.
        o  Delete MACOMM.DRV if it is in your \SYSTEM directory.  This
           file, however, *SHOULD NOT* be confused with MSCOMM.DRV in
           the \SYSTEM directory *NOR* MACOMM.DRV in the Win 95 directory.

General Network Information
	o  Remove protocols specific to a certain type of Network
           Interface Card (ie - "IPX/SPX compatible Protocol for
           SMC8000").  Then add the non-NIC specific protocol, such
           as the "IPX/SPX compatible Protocol".

If you are running IPX...
	o  Go to Control Panel, click on Network, "IPX/SPX compatible
           Protocol", then select Properties.  Click on the  Advanced
           tab.  Then:
               - Change Source Routing to 16 entry cache (Token Ring
		 only)
               - Change Frame Type from Auto to the actual frame type
                 you are using.
	o  Make sure "Client for NetWare Networks" component has been
           added.

If you are running NetBIOS/NetBEUI...
	o  Go to Control Panel, click on Network, "NetBEUI", then
           select Properties.  Click on the Advanced tab.
               - Increase NCBS to 40 and Sessions to 20.
	o  Be sure that "Client for Microsoft Networks" component
           has been added.
