OK so from what i read some one might be able to make a dosbox isp so you could run say Netscape in win3.1 and log onto the Internet.

i guess it would act like a proxy sever of sorts i was wondering if any one has tried this?

and yes I'm a bit obsessed over win 3.1 in dosbox I'm sure i will get over it soon

I could barely understand a word of the above post. But rather than interpretting it as meaning "will someone create an internet service provider for dosbox" I`ll interpret it as "can you connect to the internet with dosbox?". To which the answer is no I`d be guessing.

technical it's possible in fact we(the dosbox authors) have patch which adds it. We don't see any use for it except for win3.x and for that one we don't care much.
