Cool :)

It's based on AmiTcp4, right? What are the advantages over AmiTcp3 (GUI doesn't matter)? How much will it cost?

Is there a fee to upgrade to EasyNet Pro?

I had Easynet and never got it to work with either a wireless or wired pcmcia card, is this likely to change that?

@AmigaKit

Can't wait for EasyNet Pro! Will the new version be a download for previous owners of EasyNet, ISO or something?

Also, totally off topic, but would you folks happen to have a spare, new set of the "Amiga A1200" and the "Amiga OS3.1 Workbench" books that came with the Magic Pack that could be purchased? Also, I would really like to get a book of, new if possible, AmigaDOS for OS3.5. I'm sure I may be able to download something like that but, I really love books! I really would like to get the books! :razz: Thanks AmigaKit!

The one advantage is the ability to use the lpr.device to print to network printers; I'm sure there are others as it is a "Generational" update and is suspected to better support the X-Surf 100's abilities...

I just checked: it appears that "lpr.device" (which I wrote back in September 2000) doesn't use the AmiTCP V4 API functions which are absent in AmiTCP V3. Those absent would be recvmsg() and sendmsg(). I don't know why I made "lpr.device" require the V4 API...

Thanks. I only need a stack for file transfers and some Aminet browsing using a PCMCIA network card, so I think I'll stick to AmiTCP 3.
