  Sorry for not making things clearer - I didn't think I had to. 
Obviously the Warp 3 plain has no ability to link to my LAN.  I had
a modem attached to it and dialed up to check it all out.  So it 
only had a dialup connection.  Both Netscape 2.02 & 4.04 have been 
left at "directly connect to the Internet".  Under those conditions 
2.02 works fine but 4.04 doesn't.

  I'm wondering whether the tcpip 4.? (can't remember) I have on my 
Connect machine (mentioned purely for comparison which separately 
can dialup and runs 4.04 fine) is the determining factor?  If it is 
I wonder whether I can install the dialup bits only.  Obviously in
the Warp 3 plain machine there is no mpts 52??  which is a
"prerequisite" for tcpip 4.?  So I'm a bit pussy foot <g> to try it
and wondered whether you guys know.  I may just try it anyway.

TIA
