Also please remember that going online with a 1200 these days is kind of pointless, most sites won't render correctly and it will be very slow and painful.   I've got an 80Mhz 060 and my LAN card is still sitting in the box I brought it in, that should give you an idea ;)
I disagree. I've got a 50MHz 030 and a 10Mbps PCMCIA NIC; on most sites I've visited, the NIC is the bottleneck, and where that's not true, it's usually only because of bloated Javascript and iBrowse's lack of a JS whitelist feature. It's not zippy by any means, but it's perfectly usable.

I am using wireless for my A1200, I guess you are using the prism drivers?

Then edit your startup-sequence and add following line:
C:SetPrism2Defaults SSID "YourSSID" KEY "YourKey"

It's case sensitive also if you don't have add CardReset ticks 50.
