DHCP for Genesis ?! Wow...:)

[Jose]

Just accidentally stumbled across THIS

Cool, didn't even knew it existed:-) , does it work well ?

[pVC]

I know it has existed for long, but never had any reason to try it. I prefer static IP addresses, which makes easier to connect different computers with different protocols. Most people have external router nowadays anyway, so no point use anything else than static addresses

Unless you live near a public WiFi access point Or have a van with an Amiga inside. Or a high gain external antenna and just want to fiddle around with the signals you get ... ;-)

[ZeBeeDee]

The way ahead ... :laughing:

@Jose

I never got it to work.  Let me know if you have any luck.

Must say I find it fascinating that you could pay for a TCP stack and still have to go elsewhere for your DHCP solution.

Erm.... Genesis comes "free" with the OS. ;-)

More like Genesis comes unlicensed with the OS. :-(

I thought that Genesis was licenced, but AmiTCP (for which Genesis is graphical user interface) wasn't.

but yes, it's "as free as warez goes" - as long as you buy the operating system, of course :roll:

Isn't arexx also unlicenced? But I guess it was already during Commodore times...

[Piru]

Well, genesis obviously refers to the whole package here.

But true, Genesis pretty much is just a MUI GUI for AmiTCP/IP.

Okay, then weird that you could buy an OS with TCP/IP support but no DHCP. Either way...
