My AR300M router uses the 192.168.8.X IP range (the router address itself is 192.168.8.1) - is this the same for you? Your router address should remain as 192.168.8.1 no matter what Wifi network you are connected to. You your router IP changes when choosing a different wifi network then it's not...

Personally I would choose the OpenWRT router, such as the GL AR300M. It's harder to set up than the Vonets, but once it's done this router is faster, more robust, and you can switch wifi networks without having to reboot your Mac.

Older versions don't support Json RPC, which is the API that the extension uses for issuing commands to the router.

Thanks for sharing this! What a beautiful user interface and the tunes are really captivating.

Do it via the Luci interface, otherwise it won't persist when you turn off the router. Also see my note about swapping eth0 and eth1 in the MacWifi readme.

Have you tried connecting the router to your modern PC/Mac via Ethernet to see if it works? It's much easier to diagnose problems on a modern device, then once it's working you can try on your vintage Mac. Also, are you seeing a solid Link Light on your vintage Mac Ethernet card? If not, then...

Thanks all for the encouraging words. I was going to pack it all in after frying my LCD controller - but you've motivated me to keep on trying. @Byrd thanks for the offer. I'm pretty happy with the results using liquid silicone rubber, but I'll keep it in mind cheers. @trag I actually included...

Hey @10001001sos sorry for the delay - please see attached PDF of my router settings. My settings are a bit of a mess - mainly because I don't know how to rename the network interfaces so they are a bit misleading. Here's what I can tell you: The first interface LAN is the Bridge between the...

Here is the only photo I took before I accidentally fried the LCD controller board... a fleeting moment of glory: It looked great - zero distortion and the curved resin panel fits the Mac perfectly. I accidentally reversed the polarity of the 12v power to the LCD controller - smoke ensued! I...

Quick update: As you can see from the broken shard of glass below, the CRT cutting was unsuccessful! But perhaps it was a blessing in disguise, because as you can see the glass is very dark, thick and has a stipple texture on the inside. It would have led to poor clarity from the LCD. But it...

@10001001sos I'll log into my router and screenshot the bridge settings. I'll try for this weekend.

Hi @10001001sos. The MacWifi project isn't dead - I got it to a working state so it hasn't needed any further work as yet. The latest version is on the GitHub page here: https://github.com/antscode/MacWifi/releases I understand setting up the GL-iNet Router is complicated. Which step in the...

I'll keep that in mind for the next release! The current logo looks like this which is not nearly as interesting:  

I use the Retro68 compiler on my Windows 10 machine. I use the Visual Studio IDE. I also have Basilisk II installed on my PC to test builds.

I agree! I'd consider fixing mine up, but there's a very good chance I'd wreck a solder pad. I actually have one more SE/30 motherboard lying around, I'll go for perfection on that one with smaller caps as per @Bolle's suggestion and your adhesive idea.

Haha I freaked out when I first read about it - but once you try it you'll see that it's really not that bad :D Thanks for the kind words.

I can vouch for the twist method too- I've done 2 boards this way with 100% success. This is a great idea, because holding the cap in place while you solder is tricky. I'll definitely try this with my next board thanks.

There's different sizes?!?! Lol that would have made it so much easier! :)

Well I don't care what you all say, but recapping with tantalum capacitors is HARD! Last time I tried, I gave up and switched to electrolytics - which I found much easier. That said, this time I had success... I bought this NOS motherboard over a year ago, still in original packaging. Apart...

In a word, No, unfortunately. The Colour Classic CRT is much bigger than the original B&W ones. I think there would also be issues with the analog circuitry required, and also the shape of the glass on the front.
