I've done this. And Windows 3.1, 95, NT4, and 98 too. Be behind a NAT so random strangers can't ping you, only visit *very* trusted websites, don't store/transmit sensitive data on retro computers, and have backups... but visiting FrogFind in ancient browsers is fun.

As for connectivity, we can see that, using mTCP, we can ping google. We can also launch FrogFind, so, this is up and working!

Today's fun fact: Browsing the web on an Archimedes (real hardware, not emulated) with ArcWeb is very much still possible!

FrogFind Grabs the WAP:
Yes, the Wireless Application Protocol! What other WAP could there possibly be? This long-dormant cellphone standard is now once again available on the web, thanks to [Sean] over at ActionRetro modifying his FrogFind portal as a… ift.tt/c3RUeBd

But obviously having WAP and GPRS isn't a problem here, until the end of 2029 when they shut down our 2G networks. First thought loading FrogFind on Nokia 7110, but there's no mobile dial-up numbers anymore, and 6310 wanted WAP gateway IP, so here's 6650 showing FrogFind.

I caught up with @ActionRetro1! He is doing cool things with frogfind and a flip phone, together with a network that @dosdude1 put together!

The packet driver loaded, and the dhcp is working.
Frogfind is mandatory to test old web browsers
