exxos's DFB1 trials

[Steve]

I never got the USB portion to work on the Falcon with both the USBEee and the NETUSBee. HDDriver recognized the USB hub but not the USB memory stick.

The NET part works great though with the latest uiptool. I copy files on the Fakcon that way. My NETUSBee doesn't work on the TT, no NET and no USB.

Yep that's all I need - file transfers, I don't think there are any drivers that are needed for this either?

Then I'll have to dig out an ethernet cable, haven't used one for years!

Cheers,

Simon

Simon do yourself a favour and ditch the Netusbee. Get a BlueSCSI V2 and connect it to the SCSI port on your falcon. It will allow WiFi internet support using the Daynaport driver :) it's amazing! Reliable and solid as a truck.

No, you only need UIPTool. Launch it on the Falcon and you can either use the webclient or a ftp-client like Filezilla. I always use Filezilla with UIPTOOL. Ftp allows you to drag folders with files or create folders on the Falcon.

Hi Steve

Hadn't seen these before, and can't find a lot of Atari documentation - is it pretty simple to set up?

Not getting very far with this, could be the ethernet cables - when I plug them in to either a windows machine or one of the mesh wifi things I have I try and launch UIPtool and the programme launches but the terminates too quickly for me to read anything on the screen.

When plugging the cable in to windows the ethernet adapter says not connected.

It's been a long time since I did anything more complex than just connecting to my home wifi network so no doubt I'm getting everything wrong!

@smoore100 Besides being an absolutely awesome hard disk emulator (where you simply drag and drop disk images onto your SD card as files) it emulates the Daynaport ethernet device over WiFi. The Daynaport is a very old-school SCSI to ethernet adaptor which was fully supported on Atari. You can't buy them anymore because they're so rare. But BlueSCSI v2 emulates it. You can download the drivers from Anodyne systems. Made by Roger Burrows who did Extendos for cd-roms. Drivers are available for both Stik / TOS / Magic / and Mint.

Make sure no other TCP stack or network drivers are loaded into AUTO, else it won't work. I think another TCP stack is loaded. I had the same issue with UIPTool when I first got the NETUSBee.

Thanks Steve, I’ll take another look at this tomorrow..

Wi-Fi access is very tempting!

Thanks for the tip, will check in the morning.

Is this what I am looking for?

@smoore100 yeah V2 that's right. You'll need a 50 pin SCSI to the SCSI2 type connector on the Falcon of course.
