I just went thru this.
I have a mp2100 & an ibook with Jaguar. Here is what I did.
I wanted to use 802.11. I have a linksys wap-11 at my house, with a
wide open network. my ibook has an airport card, and I have a Lucent
Wavelan for the Newton.
- get the software
- 802.11 driver - http://www.ff.iij4u.or.jp/~ngc/eng/newtwave.htm
- NCU - www.unna.org
You will be using classic to run NCU under Jaguar-- but yo don't have
to boot into os9 at any point.
- install 802.11 driver on newton
- have it use Appletalk - check the box upon insertion of card
- set up Internet Connection - Setup/Internet Setup and configure for
ethernet and your card.
If you have Internet Setup, then you have NIE
- Install NCU on mac. This will start Classic and the install will take
a while. The beach ball spins and spins-- let it finish.
- Set the Sharing name of your mac
- you have to do this via classic
- make sure classic is running
- navigate to the System Folder/Control Panels/File Sharing
- set the name of your mac to something
- Turn on Appltalk in OSX
- Open Network Preferences
- Choose the Appletalk tab, click on 'make appletalk active'
- click on 'apply now'
- Verify that appletalk is on:
- navigate to /System Folder/Apple Menu Items/Choose and run it
- the chooser should have Appletalk enabled already selected
- Make Newton use Ethertalk
- choose Prefs app on newton
- click on AppleTalk
- connect using 'ethertalk'
- choose your networking card
Make connection
- run NCU on mac
- In prefs, choose Appletalk connections
- run dock on newton
- connect via AppleTalk
- connect to - choose 'Other computer'
The Newton should open a choose where you can see your mac.
Choose it. You should be connected.
