Hi,
Ive done some extensive reading about networking older machines. Im looking for something that doesn't require a degree in computer science.
I have a 4Mb Classic with 7.5 or 7.6 I think. I also have a Dayna SCSI to ethernet converter.
I also have a Netgear 5 port Gigabit switch.
I have a modern Apple laptop - OSX 10.8 at least.
Im thinking the first hurdle to cross is getting two machines that can talk to each other - i.e. something like an iMac with System 9 or something sat between the two so that the compact can see the iMac, and in turn the iMac can see my modern machine...
Ideally Id like the Classic to be able to see the internet.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
