A couple of questions. Is the speed the full Localtalk speed, or serial connection speed? Has anyone tried this with Basalisk II? Similar to what I did with a serial to USB connection? Minus the need for ARA I assume...

I was going to try it, and see if I can get it + basilisk ii to provide an internet gateway for my Macs connected via wired localtalk. Same as what I did with a serial to USB adapter A2Server supports it now Post in thread 'TashTalk USB' https://68kmla.org/bb/threads/tashtalk-usb.52115/post-594050

Forgot to mention, did you see https://68kmla.org/bb/threads/tashtalk-usb.52115/

You mentioned using Mac OS 9.2.2/9.0.4 with v2.1.7 drivers. and Mac OS 8.1 with v1.6.4. I assume you have tried OS 8.1 + v2.1.7? Also are the files you are using for the dos volumes on a HFS or HFS+ volume? If HFS+, try an HFS volume. You probably saw the thread for me trying to get 8.1 +...

For dialup like there is: https://www.savagetaylor.com/2020/11/24/usb-serial-file-transfer-from-basilisk-ii-to-a-68k-macintosh/...

You can hack a modem to modem connection with a phone cable and 9v battery I looked at this years ago and decided that a serial to serial connection, or USB to serial connection would be way easier.

Does it have DOS partitions or container files? I suggest trying PC setup 2.1.7 to see if it fixes the problem. 2.1.7 is suppose to fix some issues with OS 8.1 and later. The problems I had seemed to be unique to the 630 DOS systems

Not sure if this will help. https://www.savagetaylor.com/2019/12/11/connecting-your-68k-macintosh-to-a-real-or-emulated-mt-32/ Install the Apple Midi Manager software. You’ll need to copy two files to the root of your OS folder: the Apple MIDI Driver and MIDI Manage. The instructions say to...

I never had any luck with the quick on and off, I only get video with the pram battery installed

I found the same as cc_333, if I only planned to used the Iomega zip drive as my boot drive, and therefore not change disks while the system is on, the patched Apple HD SC setup worked fine. The only benefit I found of using the official Iomega driver was when I wanted the Iomega icon, and I...

I assume you mean the external SCSI connector of you Plus? It might work, you might need to check that the drive is terminated properly, either jumpers or resistor packs

This may be possible, see the mention of using the appletalk protocol on page 65 for windows for workgroups: https://archive.org/details/apple-dos-compatibility-software-update-user-manual/page/64/mode/1up?q=Appletalk And https://savagetaylor.com/TIL/TIL18748.pdf

I could only get my 630 to work with industrial CF cards. https://www.savagetaylor.com/2023/12/17/ide-replacing-your-old-ide-drive/ That initially worked, currently my 630 is having issues but i think it needs a recap. If your 630 has not been recapped that may be the root cause for you too.

Did a quick search. Mac OS 8.1 was the first system to have official UDF support. So perhaps 68k systems capable of running 8.1 can access DVDs
