A lot of work went into the database for whdload wrapper, people in the Pistorm community testing and tweaking every reported trouble with games.

The WHDL wrapper works not exclusivly on Pistorm-ed machines btw.

Also for Vampires and 060-equipped Amigas it can be helpful.

The options regarding Pistorm ofc are irrelevant for others.

Not at all atm, you need the wirelessmanager tool from the prism-package to initialise.

but, as mentioned before, everything is still alpha stage. so behave accordingly.

Edit

Miami as th TCP/IP stack operates on top, the connection is made by the wirelesmanager.
As of today Miami has issues so only Roadshow as the stack is recommended to use and ofc you have to configure it as well.

Wifi with WPA2 works fine atm, i am sure there are some refinements to be made but so far it is the best solution, faster than PCMCIA and secure too.

The setup got included in the latest Caffeine 9275 too, it is even easier now, only two steps.:
Select your device
setup the WPA SSID and password.

If the SSID is hidden there is some text to be added in the wireless.prefs but that's about it.

Every supported Pi has WiFi included, yes.
Exception:
CM4 can be obtained without Wifi, that is bad decision making in hindsight.

Some have different chips so you might encounter a not-yet supported one, hence the alpha test.
