Hmmm... So you're using GenMAC for your wired ethernet as well as wireless? And you get these crashes both wired and wireless? Try a non-GenMAC driver for the wired NIC, if that is the case.
FWIW, here is my info:
INETVER identical to yours.
[C:\]bldlevel \genmac\driver\genm32w.os2
Build Level Display Facility Version 6.12.675 Sep 25 2001

Vendor: Willibald Meyer
Revision: 1.07.XXX WPA
File Version: 1.7
Description: GenMac Wrapper
For my wired NIC, I'm using the Broadcom driver, which does not include bldlevel information:

Hi Lewis !
By now my OS/2 system has become pretty much a CRAP
system as far as the Internet is concerned.
I just can not afford to have this damn box crash with
dozens of apps running:
Version numbers of TCP/IP protocol drivers:
SOCKETS.SYS: 6.3100
AFOS2.SYS: 6.3100
AFINET.SYS: 6.3100
Not sure how to get the NIC versions, but I do know
that the GenMac driver should be the latest version
around.
I'm also using the latest WiFi driver version.
Thanks for any help

Hello Folks I still get those dreaded SOCKETS.SYS errors, even
so
I applied all those SILLY IBM fixpaks that are out
there.
Is there any non-standard fix out for that error?
I've found that jogging my NIC driver forward or
back a version sometimes helps. What NIC driver(s) are you using,
and what's your INETVER, Rick?
