    The only one that I know of that's in active development is Magic
    Dosbox. Haven't fooled around with it and getting it on the
    network though. I know it's got support for networking though
    don't know how extensive. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=bruenor.magicbox

    I'm checking out the Free version now. It only allows 1 program, but if I can get Telnet for eXample to work I'll spend the couple of bucks tp upgrade.

    I've installed a couple of Point programs, specifically D'Bridge and OpenXP 4.0, but I can't figure out what I need to do to get it to see
    my wifi.

    The fork of DOSBOX I use at home has NE2000 emulation using pcap; you
    don't see the wifi directly in DOSBOX. That makes sense, actually,
    since the NE2000 is a common card, and there's packet drivers and
    support in old DOS environments. You might not find DOS drivers for a
    new wifi card if DOSBOX just passed it through.
