I've no idea but I gave up with connecting my A1200 to my silly Windows 7 PC, instead I've connected to my Media Server (an HD connected to my router) via a LAN cable.

It's really convenient now, just copy any files from the PC to the Media Server and they appear on the A1200's desktop in a shared folder.

I'll do a video of it in action one of these days.

Well, you could use the well-known serialport-to-serialport connection (null-modem) and use a usb-serial adapter with virtual comm port at the usb (pc) end.

I think that's exactly what he's asking about.

Tempted to get a wireless lan pcmcia card from Amigakit!

I have some wired pcmcia cards but wireless would make life a bit simpler and cooler
