What for? ....
Without a CPU upgrade you're not going to be able to run any meaningful live internet software, i.e. web-browser etc.

:confused::(:(:confused:

You really believe that if it isn't GUI, it's not meaningful or does the Amiga network not support FTP and telnet type of applications?

I must be pretty old..  I still use FTP and telnet (and lynx and wget) all the time...
(Not on the Amiga, just got my 1200, and don't have a network card for it.  But I expect FTP to be usable when I do...)

IMHO, sneakernet should never be the preferred solution.
