G'day, Ive just been given the "motherload" of Amiga stuff from someone who was about to chuck it all down the tip. I had to make 3 trips to get the stuff home (each trip filled a large 4WD) and am having lots of fun reliving the past (I had one of the first NTSC A1000's in the country) Im very rusty on all this, but would like to get an Amiga on the internet if possible, Ive done some searching but come up with either bad links or stuff I simply dont understand. From the hard-ware I have I think the the following would be best suited? An Amiga A1200 HD A 3com 3C589C PCMCIA card. So far I found drivers for the card which are sitting on my pc, I dont know how to get them onto a disk for the Amiga. Is there any way I can get the drivers from the pc to the amiga? And what would I need as far as a browser etc? I have a router with a satellite connection and am hoping to simply plug the amiga via the 3com card into it. Thanks
