Prism2.device on OS4 Anyone?

Not sure, works fine here with both an orinoco card on my A1200 & a PCI WiFi card from AmigaKit on my Pegasos I. (The card was labelled for an AmigaOne but it's just a prism2 compatible card)

You just copy prism2.device to SYS:Devs/Networks and the other utilities and then set prism2.device as your device in your networking software...

This is obvious but also make sure its just "prism2.device" and not SYS:Devs/Networks/prism2.device... (the TCP/IP software should look in the network dir anyway - anyone feel free to correct me on this if its wrong)

I've had the prism2.device working with both the original Miami and MOSNet (the MorphOS TCP/IP stack programmed by Pavel "Sonic" Fedin) - I only had to change one line in the config for that... as it treats the WiFi still as ethernet... but using a different device.

As I don't have an OS4 machine & so don't know how Roadshow (Isn't that the name of the builtin TCP/IP?) i'm not sure how you would set it up, I would assume however that you just set up the connection as a standard ethernet connection but using the prism2.device driver.

Another possibility maybe that you are installing the pccard.library too... do you really need that on OS4? Try both with and without just to make sure.

Hope something in there helps, if you want any more help feel free to PM me. ;-)

Did you get it working?

Are you sure the card is supposed to work with OS4?

Mine works fine on OS3.9, but sure about OS4 w/ PCMCIA at all to be honest. It *should* work though... also if you can't get  it working after a while try registering at Amigans.net as they have a lot more OS4 users there.

Also can you use prepcard to find out the port number of the card... also what about the early boot menu? Although can't remember if that gives you PCMCIA card info or not... :-?
