Bill Lange #1 Posted January 9, 2004 Has anyone connected their Atari 8-bit to the internet? I remember hearing about someone designing a network interface card for it. I'm not sure why I would want to do except just to do it. Bill Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gunstar #2 Posted January 9, 2004 There were a couple of websites that had BBS's setup for 8-bitters to call in the past year or so, but they were only up temporarily. As far as getting onto the internet with a browser your best bet is CONTIKI, which is a new multi-platform internet OS&browser. It's still in the early stages of development for the 8-bit and I'm not sure if it will only be for broadband or if they are going to create a PPP for modem users as well, but here's the link for all the information on CONTIKI: http://www.dunkels.com/adam/contiki/apps/w...webbrowser.html and here is a more direct link for the A8 version: http://dunkels.com/adam/contiki/ports/atari.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill Lange #3 Posted January 9, 2004 I guess I was looking more for something like this - http://kl.net/atari/ running the following code in Atari BASIC - 5 CLOSE #1 10 A=0 15 XIO 36,#1,14,0,"R1:" 20 XIO 34,#1,(192+48),0,"R1:" 30 XIO 38,#1,64,0,"R1:" 40 OPEN #1,9,0,"R1:" 1000 STATUS #1,C 1010 IF PEEK(747)<2 THEN GOTO 1000 1015 XIO 40,#1,0,0,"R1:" 1030 PRINT #1;"HTTP/1.1 200 OK" 1040 PRINT #1;"Content-type: text/html" 1050 PRINT #1; 1060 PRINT #1;"<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Atari 800 web server</TITLE></HEAD>" 1070 PRINT #1;"<BODY BGCOLOR=#000000><CENTER><FONT COLOR=#EFEFEF>" 1071 PRINT #1;"<H2>Welcome to the Atari 800 web server</H2>" 1075 A=A+1 1080 PRINT #1;"<P>Hits since last reset:";A 1800 PRINT #1;"</FONT></CENTER></BODY></HTML>" 1900 STATUS #1,C 1910 IF PEEK(749)>0 THEN GOTO 1900 1920 CLOSE #1 1930 OPEN #1,9,0,"R1:" 1940 XIO 34,#1,128,0,"R1:" 1970 STATUS #1,C 1980 IF PEEK(747)>1 THEN GOTO 1970 1990 XIO 34,#1,192,0,"R1:" 1999 GOTO 1000 WRL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cybernoid #7 Posted January 17, 2004 Hi, The Atari Ethernet Cartridge Site it mine. Although, I am getting ready to update the information here: http://home.comcast.net/~atariguy1/atari/a8ether. To give a quick update, I have finished the version 3.0 of the board layout, but am waiting for the money to build some boards. I have also ported Version 1.1 of Contiki...it works much better than 1.0. Anyway, I've been lurking around the message boards and newsgroups and will try to keep everyone updated. I have to say that there is still a great deal of cool stuff coming out for our 8-bit's including cool graphics and a Mario Clone... good job Analmux... l8r, Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The page doesn't exist anymore Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cybernoid #9 Posted February 3, 2004 Guys, Yeah sorry, my previous web-site provider, decided that they could no longer provide FREE websites with CGI, so I have put the Ethernet Project page here: http://home.comcast.net/~atariguy1/atari/a8ether You will hear more about this project very shortly....
