Connecting to Wifi.
I recently downloaded the list of compatible WiFi PCMCIA cards, and managed to get a Compaq WL110 which was in the list.
Now what do I do to get online? Obviously all the drivers on the Compaq / HP site are Mac/PC, Is there some generic Amiga WiFi software to get it to connect? I guess I will need an Amiga web browser too, what are my options here? Last edited by Lektroid; 21 August 2020 at 07:35.

What compatibility list did you use? I normally refer to this one:
http://www.g-mb.de/pcmcia_e.html Which doesn't list a Compaq WL110. Basically you need to find a wireless card that has a prism2 chipset. |

You will need a TCP/IP stack. The main options are:
- RoadShow. Commercial, supported. - AmiTCP. Older versions were free. Tricky to setup. - Miami. Commercial. Abandoned? |

Many years ago I made a tutorial how to setup the Wifi with AmiTCP here:
