Wireless for old Amigas?

If you are a DIY man, It's very easy to interface an ISA ethernet card to those amiga models.
The same on PCMCIA. PCMCIA is only an extension to ISA bus. I've connected PCMCIA cards to AVR microcontroles with success.
The problem is always the same... drivers...
I wrote my self lots of network drivers for linux and some microcontrollers, but these have well known (and well documented) apis, or no api at all (like microcontrolers). The amiga's problem is to write a sana2 compliant device driver... As far as I know, ofcourse.

If you can attach a PCMCIA card that already has an Amiga driver, would it not be fairly straightforward to adapt the driver to work with this configuration?

Hmmm... It depends on how you connect It. If you are able to mimic the gayle's pcmcia interface, yes, you can use standard drivers.

I was thinking more that the existing drivers could be modified to support your new interface. My Prism-II wireless driver for example is open source, and the code is modular with regard to buses: internally, there are modules for PCMCIA, PCI etc. You would just need to add a small "A500" module; the core wireless chipset driver would stay the same.
