AmiTCP / EasyNet

[Thorham]

Miami DX is nice, but also slow. Switched to AmiTCP 3 and never looked back However, it can be a pain to set up if you don't know what you're doing, and it doesn't have DHCP.

Hi ,I am sure Easynet is very good if one could get it to work ,and I have had it working but I think it was more luck than judgement so I gave up and used Roadshow indeed I have it on my A 600 and my A1200 and it works brilliantly and all you have to do when you install it is move a  file and it is amazingly fast ,but that's my opinion and I am afraid Easynet is not so Easy ,but good luck anyway ,best wishes Brian. ps takes a few minutes to install Roadshow

Roadshow is nice, but it doesn't run well on my system. Seeing how I only really needed it for the speed boost over Miami DX, I think AmiTCP 3 does the job quite nicely and free of charge

Easynet works fine, it is simpler than miami.
The only problem is as a friend said before in this topic that cannot be upgraded anymore.
We have to buy that floppy... it is not a money issue but this is not my problem so they should emailed us the updated software to solve this bug...
They know who paid for the card.

The only issue I have with this is perhaps something I have incorrectly configured.

when accessing a public web server by dns lookup I must provided the trailing '.' to the end of the url - as in the fully qual url.

This is a problem when clicking on links from Google.

It seems that without the trailing dot the ISP hostname gets appended resulting in a garbage url.

This is not just ibrowse.  If I run ping http://www.google.com then it evaluates to http://www.google.com.my.isp hostname. without the trailing dot.

I wonder if there is any advice on what could be the problem? dns servers ? which I feel are correct.

Typically, if an address isn't resolvable the domain is appended (
set by the 'search' line in resolv.conf, I forget what the equivalent file in AmiTCP / EasyNet is).   Although, I don't understand why the initial lookup is failing, I can only think it's something to do with the domain name set and/or the search order.
