Is the Pistorm Wifi configurable in MiamiDX?

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.

Thanks for the info, a friend of mine mentioned about buying a Pistorm for his A1200, I know he's running 3.9 and used MiamiDX for manage his prism2 Netgear wifi card. Just anticipating him asking me how to configure it lol  ;D

More exciting PiStorm news...the new Alpha WiFi driver has security built in.

I've not tested it yet and its unfinished, so please don't ask me how to use/ fix it. Here's a link to the Github download.

@F0LLETT

Not sure. Maybe worth a download to see….

What do you need for the WPA to work? Does the pi4 already have a WiFi module?

When you add this bit, please can you include setting it to read/write and mounting on the Amiga side? I do this and it allows me to update the version of Emu68 without taking the card out. I'm not in front of my machine right now, but I'm happy to contribute the steps if you want.

On 19 April a Discord user reported they are connected to a wpa2 network, and members of the PiStorm facebook group are reporting success too.

I was trying earlier but getting stuck with the authentication which just times out. Will try again over the weekend and if I'm successful with getting online with MiamiDX will be publishing the steps

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.

@TribbleSmasher

I take it the Wireless part is something that’s already included on the Pi3 and above? Or do you need something extra?

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.
