Need help getting A1200 online. Hardware question.
« on: October 15, 2013, 12:34:22 PM »
I brought an Accton EN2226 network card. I should have got a Accton EN2216 instead. Is it still usable on the Amiga?

Got the compatibility info from this site:
http://www.amigahistory.co.uk/ethernet.html

I downloaded cnet.devcice from aminet which includes drivers and config tools. One tool did verify that the card exists but I don't know where to go from here.

Pls help
Tony

At the mo ive tried genesis.
 
With cnetdevice. drivers I get this from card info:

Appears to be a network card
CCR offset address (16bit) = $000800, Config ID = $01
Interface Type 1, uses: RDYBSYWAIT
Getting I/O memory now - remove card if system rezzes!
Saving card to t:card_info.bin
Card_info done.

When I try to initialise in Genesis I get this message: Card reset failed, card not compatible? At the mo im using cnet16 drivers. Will try all the others.

Not sure what to do next?

Ok. I have a new card as recommended by someone from Amibay. Its a Speedtouch PCMCIA 802.11b WiFi card. The op claimed that he and other eab users had no problems running it with WPA-PSK and TKIP.
 
I have MiamiDX, Genesis and the Prism2.device installed but I don't know where to go from here. Can someone pls help.
 
Cheers
Tony
