| Hi guys just wanting to get gather some intel (or should that be Motorola lol) when using any of the last few versions of Coffin I cannot for the life of me get Roadshow working reliably with my Prism2 based wifi card! As soon as I switch to MiamiDX it all works fine other than I have to redo all the menu scripts to suit Miami instead of Roadshow and although not hard still a pain in the bottom!!! Just wanted to know others experiances?

| Are you using the one supplied on coffin? If you have bought roadshow it should be ok, but if not its just a trial version on coffin which I think is time limited.

| Roadshow included is limited demo. Either set up Miami (as you did), live with demo limits or register Roadshow, which is paid but advanced to Miami.

| So from your experiances is it worth me buying? I have read that it is a faster TCP/IP stack but am thinking for SAMBA share and Aminet/EAB/here browsing it might just be worth sticking to Miami?

Sadly, AmigaOS never got a real standard TCP/IP, part of Amiga curse. But competition is not strong, either. Yes, Roadshow is best and only Amiga TCP/IP in development/updated. Current and future support is mutual benefit. Demo has 15 minutes limit Web info EXTERNAL LINK Shop EXTERNAL LINK SDK EXTERNAL LINK There is even a Commodity "Roadie" similar to Miami ones (not tested on Vamp!) EXTERNAL LINK Miami is a cheap ticket, but it will never be better.

| I Thank you both for your input - while we are on the subject of Amiga networking... does anybody know how to use the time set feature in miami? I have it set with a ntp server address but it just dosnt seem to do anything?

isn't Miami only a demo and must be purchased too? (how?) => AmiTCP 3 r0cks0rz!

Used to be back in 90s. From some point registration isnt possible and key is public EXTERNAL LINK

| Roadshow is imho still the best option until a good working DHCP client is made for other TCP/IP stacks. Until then..
