I have a problem that I can not resolve with telnet.

I have made a small video to show what the exact symptoms are. It's much easier to show you in video than to even try to explain this. Has anyone experienced this issue before in my posted link:

I need this issue to be fixed. Can somebody give me their certified proven configuration to their system, all hardware, software config, and packet driver information to help me resolve this issue?

I will tell you up front that I have a test system version 6.25 running in the same enviroment and using the same packet drivers with no problems what so ever and it works flawlessly super fast. I'm only having problems with this fresh version of Worldgroup 2 DOS install.

You need a youtube account to view the video.

Search the message base on "packet driver" youll find alot of help. WG2 runs best in win 95 dos mode. You can dowload WGQUICK.ZIP from my bbs its a pdf of the WG2 quickstart guide.

A hint of whats happening would help.

Sorry, the video was set to private, I wasn't thinking... It should work now.


The problem is the horrid scroll rate. The video can describe the problem much better than my words can.

Are you logged in locally in that vid? or from another computer telneting in, if locally I doubt its a packet driver issue.

Locally via lan.

Looks similar to what occurs when you dont use a 3com 3Cxxxx (3c905) series lan card. I experienced similar with a dlink card.
Some more info for config.sys, autoexec.bat and packet driver use :
