Re: reaching gmail in basic html?

I am using  wifi in ms dos 7.1 right now.
The package I use sshdos, allows me to reach shellworld and other shell 
services without issue.   Granted I  have done the research, but even 
freedos has native support for wifi, so I am unsure why you feel this 
cannot be done.  The DOS djpgg system is even more  detailed.
Technically I can reach the internet without first accessing shell 
services, but lack a solid  edition of lynx for dos incorporating latest 
configurations to use.
