I can connect my Amiga to a PC via Ethernet.
I can exchange files back and forth using Genesis.
I can connect to Internet on my roommate's PC or on
my Amiga.
I can connect to Internet while my roommate's PC
also connects, thanks to a Router.
But trying to have an internet connection AND
a LAN connection operating SIMULTANEOUSLY seems
to give both the PC and my Amiga fits.
I wonder what I have to do for both LAN and
Internet to work at the same time?

More details can help.
Which computer is the gateway to the internet connection?
Are the computers setup with DHCP or static IP for the net connection?
I've actually had alot of different configurations here. I've had my Amiga using Miami DX as a gateway to my PC's. Had a PC with windblows XP pro as the gateway. Currently have a Linux box as a gateway. No major problems. Local stuff always worked, although certain windblows games didn't like the Amiga with MiamiDX over the net (Age of Empires : Age of Kings being the only real one).
Current Setup for me:
- K 6 2 500 running Linux is the gateway
- PIII 667 Windblows XP (DHCP)
- Athlon 1.33Ghz Windblows XP Pro (DHCP)
- Amiga 4000/060 running MiamiDX as the TCP/IP stack (Static IP so I can use AmiFTPd and access from other computers)
- Amiga 1200T/060 using MiamiDx and a Pcmcia Ethernet card (Static IP)
- iBook SE MacOS 9 (DHCP, sometimes static, with Doubletalk for filesharing with the PC's)
- Amiga 1200/030 using Miami (DHCP)
All computers can access the internet with no real problems.
