If only there was an affordable Apple Lisa 2 replica, the sapient boards are way too expensive and would probably cost as much as a complete original system on eBay.  If not an actual one, I would probably be satisfied with emulation, if a better Lisa emulator existed (LisaEm is not 100%...

@snuci That's really cool :D!  I can imagine that with proper labels and machine-cut edges, it could hold up as a working twiggy disk replica!

Sorry it took a while to respond, I finally got around with trying out the patched version of the extension (with thread manager 2.1 installed), and am greeted with a system error: "Finder"  Address Error.  Any suggestions?

@Michael_b, is the new file the @ants sent you working with your SE?  If so, I might install it as well.

I will try to test the extension with the thread manager this weekend.  The stupid serial transfer keeps messing up and is deleting the last 100 bytes  :vent:   I may just have to use my Kryoflux Card. Also @Michael_b, did you configure your network properly?  You have to go inside the network...

Thanks for the update  ;-D   I will try this as soon as I can on my SE.  I will let you know what the results are

Actually, Is it possible to use NCSA Telnet to connect to a BBS using only ethernet and an internet connection?

@Michael_b That seems to be a feature of many modern OS's and might apply to old ones too, but when connecting my Macintosh to a BBS, I currently have to: 1.) Connect a serial cable to my modern PC and the Mac 2.) Run TCPser on the modern computer to a select port # and speed.  This makes it...

What I meant by "telnet support" is that I want to be able to connect to a BBS without using serial cables and use WiFi instead.  If it doesn't exist already, I was hoping that the extension could forward the commands given by the terminal emulator and transmit data (with the router acting as a...

Actually @ants, when the SE problem is fixed, is it possible to add telnet support?  If this is already a thing (a quick Google search brings up the WiFi Modem product) please let me know.  Since the RS-232 WiFi Modem connects to Routers, it should be possible for an OpenWRT device to support...

Thanks for the reply.  I can also second on telnet servers being a better option.  MacKermit seems to do a decent job at this (no ANSI Emulation though  :undecided: ). I might be able to use WiFi to connect to a BBS instead of a constant serial connection.  I am sure I can find a way around...

Actually @Michael_b, which browser will you/are you using for your Macintosh SE?  NCSA Mosaic looks like an better option than MacWeb (due to HTTP protocol support).  If you know of one that will work better, please let me know.

That makes more sense now, I will probably switch to a different browser for the Mac.  As for MacTCP, I hope support is added soon (if you add it, please add support for 2.06 or later).

I’ve had this exact problem with my Macintosh SE and System 7.1  :disapprove:   no logs, no WiFi.  I have at least gotten some internet access (Google and YouTube).  But not access to .org sites and no WiFi settings coming up.  I can verify that MacTCP does work though.  I have given up for the...

I have recently bought an OpenWRT router and a Farallon Ethermac for my Mac SE.  I then used this method to connect it to the internet:  So far, I have been able to get internet access to websites such as google.com and youtube.com, but am unable to access websites such as ccadams.org and...

That could be possible, but why can it access sites like google.com and YouTube.com that have advanced graphics, but can’t access simpler sites like Wikipedia and ccadams.org? Also, the error that shows up is error 400.  Would deleting the cached files or preferences fix this issue?  As for the...

Okay, so I was finaaaallyy able to access websites like google.com and youtube.com, but cannot access websites like http://www.ccadams.org/se or other simple html websites.  I am currently using MacWeb 2.0c Patched.  Unfortunately, the Wifi Extension is still not working.  It keeps...

I take back what I said earlier about the static addresses.  I finally figured out that in addition to the IP, gateway, and the subnet mask, I needed to set the DNS address for it to actually connect.  I set this value to the router’s gateway, which seems to work when connecting to the internet...

Okay ants, I am sorry for my extremely late reply on my problems with the router.  I have verified that the bridge settings are working with internet access on my modern computer (At the correct speed of 10mbps).  This will only work though when both the router and my computer are configured for...

I will try your advice with connecting it to my modern computer.  Also, my external adapter (not a card) has one green light, another light to show connection (I think it is green), and an occasional yellow flickering (I think for connection activity).  Otherwise, the only other problem I notice...
