Unlike the other libraries form SHDesigns, this one is not free. This was a significant development effort. Many hurdles had to be overcome with DC limitations. This library requires more support.

Limitations/Requirements:
- Dynamic C versions earlier than 7.21 have not been tested.
- Dynamic C version 9.4x is not supported due to compiler and library bugs. 9.52 is supported.
- Does not support PPP or PPPoE connections.
