I've noticed a lot of problems with the "Trumpet Winsock" stack being
able to handle high speed transmission...you might want to try
reducing the MTU in the 'setup' from 1500 to 1006 to see if this
clears up the transmission errors. I've been getting reports from
CallAmerica that they've seen these errors from a few of our
customers and it seems to center around those using Trumpet Winsock
as their connection. Here's a screen shot that one user found to work
best for his system:
> use freeagent for newsgroup browsing. I get "winsock reported an online

The only other suggestion I could offer is to install the WIN31
Internet Explorer and TCP/IP stack (dialer and WINSOCK) which seems
to work a bit better...you *will* be able to use Netscape afterwards
if you wish...Microsoft doesn't distribute the TCP/IP stack
separately unfortunately ;'(
You can get it from our ftp site (ftp.surfari.net).
