Hi,
I may find it necessary in the reasonably near future to get
an internet connection — and was wondering if anyone could advise
regarding what pd or shareware stuff was available here to do so.
I'm running an A2000 w 030, about 6M memory, hard drive, 144 Hayes
modem…. would like to get a SLIP or PPP connection ( I think ).
The only thing I saw in my file list off CIS was amiTCP or something
like that, and from the description it sounded like it needed a
network card (SANA II)….but according to my Internet references
what is needed is just a serial device.
Any and all advice much appreciated, thanks.

Jeff,
AmiTCP includes a SLIP driver with the archive, I believe. That's all you
need, except a frontend to dial up and establish a connection and
reconfigure all of your AmiTCP stuff before going online. It's a steep
learning curve. I've just downloaded a PPP driver off the Internet. It
looks a bit more graceful. I'm working on it. Ask me how I'm doing in a
few days, perhaps?
