A: You need to load Wildcat Connection Manager, Choose the menu item Connections, then choose Dial Properties. Check the box that you need to dial a number to access an outside line, then enter in the correct number. -- Q: When upgrading online, I receive an "Error #3 upgrading xxx program" A: This means you have an older copy of DUNZIP.DLL in your Windows system directory. Copy the DUNZIP.DLL from the directory you installed the Navigator in (usually C:\WCNAV) to your Windows system directory. (usually C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM). -- Q: When I choose to telnet to a site, Wildcat immediately reports an "Invalid Address" error. A: Check to see if WINSOCK.DLL exists in the Windows directory. If it does not, you'll need to re-install TCP/IP support under Windows. -- Q: I'm getting a "Reset Timeout" error when attempting to dial-out using a modem. A: This could be a number of things. Check to make sure you are telling Wildcat to use the correct COM port for your machine. Check to see if WINSOCK.DLL exists in the Windows directory. If it does not, you'll need to re-install TCP/IP support under Windows 95. -- Q: When I load The Navigator, I'm receiving a "cache error 262". What should I do? A: Install SHARE.EXE. Edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file and add SHARE.EXE to the end of the file. Reboot the PC so the change will take affect. -- Q: I logged in, and it told me my system files needed to be upgraded, so I let it upgrade them. If I hang up, and call back, it keeps telling me they need to be upgraded. What should I do? A: It's doing that because you haven't properly shutdown Wildcat after the upgrade. Wildcat will prompt you after a system file upgrade that you need to exit clear out of Wildcat (dialer and all) before the upgrade process can be completed, NOT just disconnect. Exit all the way out, and the next time you load wildcat, the upgrade process will be completed, and it will stop prompting you.
