I no my amiga is online but.
« on: January 29, 2015, 06:49:48 PM »
Hello all its been about 7 years since i was last here.
I recently got a CF hard drive with loads of games on from ebay. I now want my amiga on line so i can use telnet etc.

Ive installed the EASYNET software and drivers that i got from amiga kit they installed fine.
(had to install easy net software on a different partition WB partition was full)
every time i connect it says online and tells me theres a update for my software (it must be online as my router reports my amigas ip address)

Every program i tried Aweb,dc telnet etc wont work they run and thats it.

running aweb and typing a address like http://www.google.co.uk says :-

Error cannot resolve host name,entering my routers ip address says the same.

The easy net software says im online and theres a update for my program i click update and it downloads fine

Any ideas?

thanks for your time

Ive got a os 3.9 cd ill give it a go.

would it be better to get another CF card and install fresh install of wb on there. and run it from there?

Is there anyway i could clone my current cf card and put it on a bigger CF card or is that too much hassle ?

thanks for your replies  so far

ive just added my routers ip to the dns and it seems to of worked.
i ran aweb typed in google.co.uk got a white screen with text then it crashed.

went on to dc telnet and connected to telehackers.com it worked! i was able to watch the ascii starwars film thing and goto a few other telnet sites

ill try installing aweb again and find a few browsers to try.

im getting further thank you to all your replies so far
