Great! Keep up the good work.

does it have a tcp/ip stack yet?

[krize]

Notyet, but there are people working on it

[magnetic]

Most Amiga people with a PowerUP board have a 68k tcp stack like Miami or have OS 3.9 and can use Genesis from that cd. No big deal.

Its fantastic that this is FREE! Very generous to the commuinity, and people using it should please donate and/or thank the devs

[VooDoo]

@keropi

you can't use AmigaOS3.9 GenesisRA directly but you can download
GenesisMUI from Aminet and use your AOS3.9 genesiskey.library.

FrAmiga:  I used Genesis that came with 3.9 w/MOS PPC.

 I'm afraid it is a big deal.
 As voodoo said earlier the connection speed is too slow to be useful and it's the main reason that makes me switch to AmigaOS every time i want to go on-line.
 The MOS native version of the serial device is very problematic (At least for me). I can connect with it, most of the time. But even when i manage to connect it's even slower than the bult-in device of miami!

 I second to this. It's good to have MorphOS for our platform again!!

You could send a PM to Sonic @Morphzone to help him to improve the driver. He only has a pegasos so he can't test the driver without help.

 There is an open thread about this, already:

 But i think sonic is too busy atm, coding a native tcp/ip stack. I will make a bump later.
