But I certainly can connect to an OS X machine when typing its IP in the Chooser. Isn't that the same? Click to expand... No. When you enter an IP address in the Chooser, you …

Does the new model AirPort Extereme route AppleTalk packets over the wireless interface? Click to expand... That's a good question. It certainly does over ethernet, since my ol…

Does the new model AirPort Extereme route AppleTalk packets over the wireless interface? Peace, Drew

Ok, strange. I can ping every machine in my network (wifi and wired) from the Pismo in wifi, and I can ping the Pismo from my MBP (in wifi too) and from other OS 9 wired machines.…

What are the IP addresses on your network? Click to expand... 192.168.1.x Are they both within the same subnet? Click to expand... Yes. Can you ping the machi…

What are the IP addresses on your network? Are they both within the same subnet? Can you ping the machines in question?

Ok, thanks to all you guys, it finally works. I fired up my orange iBook just to be sure, and it worked just as expected on wifi. So I knew it was software-related on the Pismo, an…

Ok, I took time today to look at that.I installed Airport Software 2.0.4 (I had 1.2 installed, that came with OS 9.2.2). Now it kinda works better: I can connect to my network usin…

Sometimes it can be quirky. So some restarts. Make sure TCP/IP is set to your WAVELAN card, and that you are connecting via DCHP. Set AppleTalk to infrared just to mitigate any …

Hadn't time to start up the Pismo last week. But I bet it'll will work with the latest Airport software, as said by freundling. I'll let you know!

So, did you get it fixed? If so, what fixed it? Peace, Drew

It WILL work. Make sure you install the latest Airport 2.0.4 http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120120

My Lucent WaveLAN card had the same problem. Turned off encryption, and used the MAC restriction feature instead.

OS 9 can't do "WEP passwords" very well. Is your base station a genuine AirPort base station, or is it 3rd party? If it's 3rd party, the password can't be used in OS 9. You'll h…

Thanks for the reply! The base station is a genuine last gen Airport Extreme. Does that change something? Actually I could as well go with the MAC address filter.

Hi all, I have a nearly pristine Pismo with 512 Mb of Ram, happily running both Mac OS X 10.3.9 and Mac OS 9.2.2 on a 60 Gb hard drive. It has an Airport card, which I can use jus…

As a crazy idea yesterday, I also wondered about the feasibility of hooking another wire to the printer port of both GS's. Since the modem port wire is definitely going to have to …

Cool! I imagine the taking turns issue would depend largely on what sort of game you're planning. Any kind of real time action game is going to be problematic because you're almost…

Yeah, I remembered NadaNet a few hours after I typed the original post. Since then, I got out my 2 IIgs's and my trusty Super Serial Card Installation and Operating Manual, and set…

Michael Mahon did a pong demo over NadaNet recently... just start googling ;-) But I have heard of something similar being done in the '80s, though I'm not sure what interface w…

I'm curious to know if there are any network games for the 8-bit Apple II? Such as where you'd connect two Apples together with a serial cable (or, heaven forbid, cassette ports) t…

I did the same thing with my duo. The only way to fix something like that is to find a startup disk for your computer or pull the drive, hook it up to another computer (with a usb …

Sometimes the most frustrating problems are the ones that you completely understand. I moved a few system resources from the start up folder on my G3 iBook (running OS 9,) and now …
