Alrighty then, there seems to be a pattern here with bootstrapping and WiFi
questions...
Because I've been learning a new trade for the last 11 months I'll blow the
dust off everything for all those who need this help...
First, connectivity. We need to know what you have to connect with to get
past being bootstrapped. Check all that apply.
[ ]Apple/Mac
[ ]Windows
[ ]Ir Port on Desktop/Laptop
[ ]Serial (I hope not)
[ ]Flash Storage Card
[ ]Another Newton MP that has connectivity or needed files
Once I know this, I'll respond with your specifics.
Second, WiFi. I pulled out the Grateful Dead MP2100 out and I'm going to
wipe it and do a fresh install for the WiFi stuff. I use the vaunted Buffalo
Air Station WLI-PCM-L11GP PCMCIA card, can't say enough good things about
this card. This card doesn't need any additional drivers beyond Hirochi's.
Once I get the fresh install completed, I'll send a detailed list of .pkg's
and their specific order. ***Please note that I will only be connecting to a
Non-WEP WiFi connection***.
Please stay tuned for this mini-tutorial. And D.J., please feel free to
reconstitute and publish on the Wiki for me!

Has anyone used a AN APPLE NEWTON 2100/2000 EMATE WIRELESS NETWORK INTERFACE

cannot recognize this type of card)" I have all new Apple G4 or G5
computers. I got the keyspan adapter, dongle, cable, and now I have a new
G5 imac and nothing happens when I plug in my newton to the G5 or into my
powerbook G4? Am I missing some software, drivers, or it just won't work
with my new mac stuff?
Can someone HELP ME All I want to do is hook up my Newton. Should I just
sell all this and get a new PDA?
You'll have to talk slow because I don't know anything about this.
Okay, start with what wireless card this is; there's no such thing as an
APPLE NEWTON 2100/2000 EMATE WIRELESS NETWORK INTERFACE CARD.
Brand name,
Lucent Technologies
model name,
WaveLAN
and FCC ID
IMRWLPC24
may all be useful. For example, I use a
Microsoft MN-520 (FCC ID: HEDACC3501D68) card.
Second: where are you with installing things on the Newton? Have you done
any at all NO:-( or are you starting with "How do I get stuff put on the
newton in the first place?"
"How do I get stuff put on the newton in the first place?"
Bingo that is me!
I love my Newton but if I can if it is only a notebook that has 4 MB of
flash memory it's not that useful for me. I have keep a journal in it for
almost 8 months would love to get on to my mac, and use the Newton for more
than that.
