You can unban yourself if needed. It also sends me reports to investigate the ban.
DO NOT USE MOBILE / CGNAT DEVICES WHERE THE IP CHANGES CONSTANTLY!
At this time, it is unfortunately not possible to whitelist users when your IP changes constantly.
You may inadvertently get banned because a previous attack may have used the IP you are now on.
So I suggest people only use fixed IP address devices until I can think of a solution for this problem!

Would certainly explain the RAM corruption...

I really hope this kicks things into gear, not sure my sanity can take another day looking at the schematics. :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :pullhair: :pullhair:

Well done.

At least you are able to find it. I've got no hope with this number dyslexia (fact)

Took ages just to test the data and address lines etc.
If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.

Does the atari cart give any clues ? you should be able to control that via serial..

If the keyboard is unplugged, do you get the constant clicking sounds ?

Well that fix made my floppy drive start working - need to check it out with some tests.

Desktop now shows Drives and Trash.

Still no a sound or keyboard
