NOVA graphics card and NE2000 networkcard

[TXG/MNX]

I just got myself an Atari MegaSTE with a NOVA graphics adapter. i opened the box and saw it had an ISA videocard. i was wondering if this adapter also supports ISA networkcards. Did anyone try it and are there drivers for it. I like to use a NE2000 compatible ISA card.

IMHO this supports only ATI MACH and Tseng ET4000 video cards.

To support Ethernet card, there is an adapter for the NE2000 card.

Yes, I know. It works pretty nice and I am using it every day. But this solution is not the best, because it use only 8 bit for communication, and is not interrupt driven. And last but not least it is not possible to build EtherNEC into the original TT case.

Do you know if it possible to use EnterNEC to connect Falcon to a router, to use ADSL connection?

Hmm I don't think so because the Falcon doesn't have a DMA port. There are romport adapters that you can use that work very well..

Normaly I am using PC as a router between my local network and catv internet. When my PC had broken harddrive I had Falcon with EtherNEC connected straight to cable modem. So I think there is no problem with ADSL. But be seure that your ADSL modem has Ethernet (some of them has USB instead)

Yup, my modem is actually a ethernet router . Sorry to bother you again: what O.S. do you use with it? I still have MultiTOS

I am running FreeMiNT 1.15.12. And I want to compile new MiNT 1.16 when I will have some spare time. I have complete UNIX environment form Sparemint. Package of Sparemint is possible install manually one by one or you can try installer like EasyMiNT or OSMD

Thanks. I'd like to try FreeMiNT/EasyMiNT, but before I need to buy HDDriver; you know, my Falcon still have the original 120MB HD, and I want to change it with a 2GB to try -any-MiNT.

I see some MiNT screenshots and it looks good.

Bonjour

 

I have an ADSL connection with no PC, only Ataris.

 

- DSL router-modem Netgear DG814 (4 Ethernet ports)

- MegaST4 with EtherNEC, STinG and MagiC 5.13

- Falcon with EtherNEC, STinG and MagiC 6.1

 

works very well, though sometimes I have to reapply the connection parameters (once per week) : the launch/boot of the router has failed.

 

Bye

TGX, don't suppose you want to sell the NOva?
