I need some help getting my 1200 EasyNet PCMCIA wireless online with AWeb. I've done this before but my mind is not what it used to be.
I installed the driver disk, I see the wireless config util in Prefs where I set my wifi network settings. I saw it modified the wireless startup script with them and I can successful run the command from a shell. What is next to do to get online as I do not see where the TCP/IP info are configured.

Reset fix in place on A1200? Check.
Show all files to see what is really where? Check.
Use static IP (never dynamic as not supported, you need plus version for that)? Check.
Also be careful which internet places you try to get to - https: not supported without AmiSSL4 or 4.1. So you can't get to google without it.
Aweb went open source? Hopefully recompile soon so can use new AmiSSL properly.
I will pay money for M68K IBrowse2.5, if it ever finishes Beta. :)

You can get to Google with Ibrowse and the TLS fix (or with 68K NetSurf). Works fine, even the animations play on it (if their "on this day" thingy happens to have an animation on it). IMHO you're limiting yourself if just using AWeb, but to each their own.

iBrowse 2.5 is not a big update. It has just some bug fixes, nothing more.
If you want to test Netsurf, here it is. It is same browser than Oldsmobile_mike video has http://cy2.uk/netsurfos3
It requires OS3.5/9 and 32mb ram. There is a another version wich is not very usefull with real Amigas. Though surfing web is pain with 68030 cpu and always will be. It is not possible to make modern web browser wich is usefull with 68030 cpu and modern web pages.
