In GUI mode or on plain DOS?

Well, despite a number of new API functions there are
no *fundamental* differences between MS-DOS 5.0
up to MS-DOS 7.10. As long as there´s no issue with
FAT32, the DOS drivers should work with any of these
issues. They also work under DR-DOS.

Have you tried the latest issue? It should be available
somewhere at Microsoft´s site... Sorry, I don´t know
the link, but I think this was discussed here a couple
of weeks ago, so you should find it in the backlogs
of this mailing list.

Parts of the TCP/IP stack were shipping with
DR-WebSpyder, if you can still find it somewhere.

The full TCP/IP stack was commercially available
from Caldera Thin Clients, now Lineo. It wasn´t
cheap and I have no idea, if they still sell it.
