- wow!
-
- Early yesterday evening i just totally reinstalled AmiTCP and PPP and
- then i configured it step by step.....
-
- logged into uni. machine, ran SLiRP, then "startnet" on the Amiga...
-
- full, proper AmiTCP stack, with PPP connection to SLiRP works 100%
- MLink was good, but it is now out!
-
- IBrowse with 4 sockets, works! and it is very nice :)
-
- (mlink only let me have 1 socket :( )
-
- ACUSeeMe - at last! I got this working.....took video from NASA-TV and
- Lund... the sound was a bit screwed but i think thats just CIA timing
- messed up on my AGA 50MHz 030
-
- ...if anyone wants a screenshot of ACUSeeME working, i might upload to
- aminet.. ;)
-
- then i ran some other apps - Grapevine, AmFTP etc, they all run fine...
-
-
- My advice?
-
- If you have enough memory and want a PROPER internet connection and
- stack, then install AmiTCP and PPP, put SLiRP at the providers end, and
- use that instead.
-
- not much memory and only use basic things? Then carry on with MLink.
-
-
- now, i must just register PPP.device to get full speed! :)
