Title: Just got online :)
Post by: MarkAshley on November 02, 2005, 08:38:06 PM

Just got an Ethernet card installed in my Mediator and managed, fairly painlessly, to get online! The majority of problems were caused by the wireless bridge I was using, but I managed to get that sorted. So my miggy is now happily browsing in A-Web! :) :) :)

Am I correct in thinking that the version of Genesis bundled with OS3.9 is a cut-down version that disconnects itself after a set period of connection? (30 mins?)

It's the full version. No time-limits of any kind.

Congrats!

Remember my first online experience with an Amiga (A1200, Mediator, 100mbit network card) :pint:

@MarkAshley

Congratulations, always nice to surf the net with an Amiga. However, you should consider trying IBrowse though, which I think is a great Amiga browser. The demo times out after 30 minutes though, but it can still be regged.

mmm...Aweb feels (is) 2-3 times slower than Ibrowse.
Our prayers will be answered when Ibrowse 2.4 arrives  :banana:  :banana:
