AmigaKit Secures AMITCP 4 Distribution Agreement

September 2nd 2013

AmigaKit, long-standing Amiga computer retailer and developer of the EasyNet software has secured a distribution agreement for AMITCP 4 with the developers, NSDi.

The deal will result in AMITCP 4 being available once again for commercial sale integrated into the forthcoming EasyNet Professional Edition package.

 EasyNet is a modern Internet networking package for Classic Amiga computers, which also provides a feature-rich front end for AMITCP.

Existing users of the standard EasyNet will be eligible for a future upgrade package to the Professional Edition.

Managing Director of AmigaKit, Matthew Leaman, commented: “We are pleased to once again support the Amiga and bring new software developments to market.  EasyNet will continue to be upgraded over the next few months and beyond, re-affirming our commitment to our customers and product.  The inclusion of AMITCP 4 into this package will strengthen the application and give users more functionality.”

Tomi Ollila of NSDi commented: “We, the creators of AmiTCP/IP are pleased to see there is nice market for the Amiga machine and operating system that has taught us so much during it's existence and we hope this agreement with AmigaKit makes it even better.”

If Genesis or another GUI is part of the deal, that would be a big advantage.

Thats the point: EasyNet replaces Genesis completely with new modern features such as Wireless Network Scanning, SMB connections, VNC etc

Every EasyNet wireless package we sell, a percentage in revenue goes back to Neil to pay him for his work and to encourage further development of the driver: you may have noticed the new v2.5 revision out last week from him.

New wireless features in EasyNet which are not available through the Aminet packages.

EasyNet is bundled with all our X-Surf 100 network cards so you can get started straight away.  We will have a new update to EasyNet this week which adds configuration options for the X-Surf 100

The new EasyNet update will be out this week.

All existing users will be able to upgrade to EasyNet Pro in October - we hope to get it ready in time for Amiwest.  it will work with cards supported at the moment by the standard version.

The driver disk always comes with the respective PCMCIA card as well as the EasyNet software

Will the new version of "Easynet" support wireless WPA/WPA2 encryption?

Yes it does, plus wireless network scanning - a first for Classic Amigas!
