For some reason the page doesn't seem to be loading for me.  Here's the Google-cache version. (http://64.233.169.104/search?q=cache:XoFNmardVFUJ:easynet.amigakit.com/+amiga+easynet)

From the design of the website - at least for the previous version, guessing by the Google cache - it seems that no information about the changes will be provided there even once the page is online again.

Thus maybe someone who updated via Live Update could provide the version number and changes of the new version, please, so that other sites could spread the news accordingly?

Many thanks in advance!

I see that it supports the Prism2 chipset, so I can use it with my Netgear MA311 wireless card I have into my A4000?

EasyNet will support your Prism2 hardware as well as X-Surf, A1200 PCMCIA, Mediator FastEthernet etc.

But it's OEM only right? There is not possibility to buy it alone?

@Phantom:

If the wireless card doesn't already work with other stacks in your A4000, it won't work with EasyNet either AFAIK. PCI wireless cards require OS4 to work in an A4000.

I know that, but first I will check it with this:

I believe that I will do the job.
