Not for MacOS... the free alternative would be to install some form of UNIX, but that's not exactly the easy way out ;-) There's always the option of getting a dial-up shell acc…

Is there a free alternative to IPNetRouter?

That's what IPNetRouter does.

Wouldn't it consist of running some router app on the Mac and then connect to that with the IIgs? Sorry, but networking isn't my strong point, possibly I should call some local net…

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…
