It's slim pickens. Aminet.net works well in iBrowse, possibly Aweb too, but most amiga related websites use more modern standards. I am sure there is still some older websites out there, but in general 68k Amigas will not provide a good browsing experience.

So its not worth installing a WiFi card in my 1200. Cheers for the tip, I'll sell my card.

Ethernet/WiFi can be used for other things than web browsing; accessing FTP servers works fine and it's also a convenient way to transfer files between your own systems. IRC also works well.

You have to switch it manually at the bottom of the page.

Ah haa! Found it.

Does installing the drivers slow your 1200 down? And is it easy to uninstall if you dislike it?

I haven't noticed any slowdown. (Can't speak to uninstalling since I've never tried.)

It'd be nice to have a list of 'retro-friendly' websites in general, amiga or otherwise. I have internet on a bunch of classic computers, but the web browser aspect is pretty useless on all of them.

Hahah! Looks good on Internet Explorer 4 on Mac System 9. (What, that's not your target demographic?) I'll have to check it out on AWeb on real hardware in a bit.
