Yes, but how? The way I understand it, I've got to create a dial-up
networking connection on the PC, and set up Miami to connect to the PC using
TCP/IP etc.

Bear in mind this is over a null-modem serial link!

But I'm not using an Ethernet device, it's null-modem. Will that make a
difference?

Not enough serial ports on the Amiga to allow the PC to share its
connection.
