A1200 Clockport tech info ?

[Agafaster]

Just out of interest, does anyone know technical info on the clockport ?
particularly, how much bandwidth can it provide ?

[Agafaster]

I did manage to find out some bits and pieces about the clockport - it is an 8 bit interface, I believe it can cope with perhaps 2MB/s (which would figure given the Subway USB), also the Hypercoms could do 450kilobits/sec too.
my line of thought was putting a 10/100base-2 on there direct, or USB and a USB-Ethernet adaptor on me 1200.

yup! something like that - I was actually looking at the Belkin one though.
oh - can one do PPP over a USB cable ? that would remove the need for the
Ethernet dongle...
(my Other Amiga is an A1XE ;-) )

funnily enough, it was your site I was looking at !
I'm just a little halfarsed and haphazard in me research!
(besides, its only a thought experiment at the mo!)
I am also looking at Ethernet controller ICs - farnell have some interesting candidates...

@Oli_hd

so nothing concrete yet then ?
nowt set down in PCB ?
subtle hint !

[Agafaster]

I was hoping to find something in a 0.1" DIL, to make it easier on me - havent done PCBs since well school, really!
hoped I might -ahem- 'prototype' on veroboard ! ;-)

I'd rather that happened with 5mm QFP than a 3cm DIL!
