Hello all :)
So now i have a Aros Computer, working fine even if grub rescue problem i success to go booting with choosing the good hd.
So then surely a bios option to unput or else.
The fact is i come back to you because i'"m in search of an usb dongle, to get the net on it, as my internet box is full of rj45 cables and no way to find an ethernet one for it.
Thanx a lot !
Regards.
edit: ok i went to Aros One to get better icons :) The fact is the system is good but i saw this on the documentation:
1.10.7 Network
Any PCI network card based on RTL 8029, Etherlink 3, AMD Pcnet 32, Nvidia Nforce, intel Pro/100, RTL
8139, RTL 8168/9 (also 8110 and others), SiS 900, Via Rhine will work. Using one of those is the only way
to get networking running on AROS. No modems supported yet.
Note: if you have a TRL8168 or compatible network card, please choose the RTL8169 driver!
But i need a wifi dongle, i think i have one which is atheros ? is there anybody who knows about it ?
really thanx for amiga vibes passing time :)
regards

I don't know of a Wifi dongle that will work, if you have a Router you can connect a LAN Network Cable, HERE (https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Aros/Platforms/x86_Complete_System_HCL#Acer) you will find compatible Lan Network Cards also tested with AROS One.

If you have a supported Ethernet card you can use one of these for computers or devices that do not have a way to use Wifi https://www.amazon.com/s?k=vonets+vap11g-300&sprefix=vonets%2Caps%2C270&ref=nb_sb_ss_deep-retrain-ln-ops-acceptance_3_6 (https://www.amazon.com/s?k=vonets+vap11g-300&sprefix=vonets%2Caps%2C270&ref=nb_sb_ss_deep-retrain-ln-ops-acceptance_3_6)
For example, I have an old HP LaserJet 1300 that has a network port and no option for Wifi. Pluged one of these to it and Voila' it's now on Wifi

Great idea amigamia, there are some videos on Youtube explaining how these devices work.

Hello Amigamia and Amigasystem !
Yes thanx a lot. i personnaly allready own a pci x 1 8139 net cart and i go to test it on my icaros tower in a pci x 8 slot.
So i think it will works ?
So then i go see for your piece of hardware, of course it will be cool !
Thanx a lot and regards to you both !
I go test and say you more soon !
Regards.
edit: ok i tried to install a rtl 8139c on this computer but i do not know which is this brown slot ? if any ideas to put in a ethernet cart for example ?
i did put a photo of it joined to this mail :)
Thanx a lot by advance !
-
Ok second chance ^^
I just bought a 28€ old computer in which i have installed a ethernet card 8139c and a nvidia 9500.
recognized by icaros desktop in my souvenirs ^^
So the problem is that the ventirad detachs itself and i have no idea if this computer boots right or not !
A friend will repair it later in this day.
Stay tuned ! :D
And thanx yet for all you told me !
-
If you're still interested in a Wi-Fi USB dongle the Netgear WG111v3 (must be this exact model) works.
Cheers,
Nigel.

Hello hello :)
Thanx a lot ! actually the perfect computer for is in repair for some days but i keep you reply in a place of my head ^^

Netgear WG111v3 better leave it alone, I tried it and more times it doesn't work than when it does.
You can get it to work with the old script reported on aros-exec.

Hey hey Amigasystem !
Happy to read you :)
So the fact is my friend owns a computer repair shop an i will pay him to get my new Icaros desktop Computer on tuesday or later.
With rtl819 ethernet cart and nvidia 9500 gt.
I bought also some chinese ethernet switch to have the net on it soon.
And finally i will tell you more on next week, with my new icaros computer, internet on it can wait some more :)

All true (although when I was using one regulalry it's reliability wan't too bad, just a bit slow and it doesn't like DHCP, you need static addresses) but as I understand it if anyone does want a USB Wi-Fi dongle, it's the only choice. However, if it is possible to use an Atheros mini-PCI instead, it is a lot better.
Cheers,
Nigel.

Hello Ntromans and thanx for your answer !
So then i go see, the fact is the tower owns a pci network rtl8139c and it goes to work too.

Thanx a lot and have a wonderfull day

-
Yes hello hello :)
I have a 8139b and a 8139c i think.
Go to install Icaros Desktop 2.3 instead of Aros One x86 due to update service ^^
I sorry amigasystem :(
So then i go have back the tower on tuesday or wednesday.
I'll iell you more :)
Regards
-
Not a problem, you will install AROS One 1.9 as soon as it is Distributed ;)
-
Yes amigasystem :)
Your version rocks also :)
Regards.
-
Thanks for the compliment, AROS One can still improve when new Core updates come ;)
-
hey hey :)
Ok i found in my mess :D a wifi dongle which seems to be good for Icaros Desktop.
This is what Linux told me about:
Bus 001 Device 008: ID 0846:9001 NetGear, Inc. WN111(v2) RangeMax Next Wireless [Atheros AR9170+AR9101]
If this dongle is good, have you any tutorial to submit me ?
Thanx a lot
edit i already found this !

-
Yes that is an old Tutorial of mine, the birth of AROS One :D
The WN111v2 I don't know if it is supported by AROS ?
-
Hello hellloooooooooo
Yes i saw it after ^^ So then i go test it perhaps tomorrow night or wednesday night :)
I have an ethernet hub but in conflict with the computer, do you think the interface Ntromans said.
So then Aros is mine soon :) and Hollywood Mal too :)
Thanx a lot !
Regards.
-
When you say "I have an ethernet hub but in conflict with the computer", what is the exact problem there?
Cheers,
Nigel.
-
Hello ntromans :)
No problem this is my fault, not due to Icaros or else.
I bought a low price hub which has a simple connector to the box and two ethernet ways out to female ethernet cables.
So the computers share the same adress, the same entry on the box.
I took this due to lack of electricity plugs in my house but i go see for other solution.
Thanx a lot.
I go see this afternoon for getting back the computer for aros.
Regards.
-
Yes !
So the computer hosts Icaros Desktop 2.3, with native gforce 9500 which gives video powerr and the rtl 8139 which gives Internet !
I bought a 30€ little switch and yes it roks !
i can close this toppic now :)
Thanx a lot all !
Regards
