Meanwhile... I've been playing around with System 7 (.5.#) that is supposed to make everything more easy, but unfortunately Open Transport does not work with 68000's processors, so I have to deal with MacTCP again - same problems again then, but OS7 is nice anyway. Furthermore the Mac freezes...
IPNetRouter for OSX doesn't have any more MacIP capability :-/ So if I want to be using the PB as a gateway I'll have to find another software, like Vicom's SurfDoubler or Vicom's Internet Gateway.
By the way, a friend should send me a copy of Apple IP Gateway (although it is uselees for my...
Yes I am, that's why I started this post in the first place - but that's part of the fun isn't it ? :lol: Thanks for the help anyway. My router is one of those "box" (as we call them here in France) my ADSL/Cable TV/Phone provider gave me, so I can't install any MacIP software on it. I'll have...
Well why not, my PB is next to the Plus so it could perfectly do that... Is there any MacIP software for Leopard I could install on it ?
I've tried that too, in fact in the screen capture you can see that the "default" setting is like you say.
Hi everyone,
As the title says, I'm the proud owner of a Plussed 512, a Farallon Etherwave localtalk-to-ethernet bridge and of an internet connection - and my goal is obviously to make those 3 comunicate !
I've already read many pages about connecting these old Macs to internet, and it seems...
Don't worry I won't harm it ! I like old things too much ;) I'm currently using a Ericsson T39 phone and a Nikon F2 camera daily...
I plan to use the space used originally for the HD activity LED (which is useless now) to be able to push the the cartidge into the drive.
Or is there any...
I'm already using the HD's power supply for the Zip drive (it's an internal one, taken from an old G3). The drive fits perfectly in the case and there is some space left, but not enough for the Etherwave I think.
I will shortly open a new post about connecting the Plus to internet...
Hi eveyone...
and thank you Mac128 and tomlee59 ! My Plus now boots from the Zip flawlessly... as I thought I was close but after trying so many formatting settings I was "dizzy" and had forgotten the basics...
Now I can focus on the next 2 challenges : to fit the (internal) Zip drive into the...
Hi all,
My plussed 512 has been collecting dust on a shelve for a while... now I've plugged it again but I'm still stuck with the same problem.
It boot Ok from floppy (system 6.0. 8) , but I can't make it boot from an external (SCSI) drive. I tried with Zips again and with a 3gb hard drive...
Yes, I first formated the drive with Lido, but couldn't boot from it. I have the blinking question mark. The procedure with Lido wasn't exactly as Charlieman explained : although my Plus has 4Mb Ram, I couldn't access the formating options. Otherwise as I already said the drive works all right...
