    Its so cool the Atari can get back online in this modern era. I hope to move in a month once my country's lockdown lifts and I can set up my atari's once again.. would love to get onto the Fujinet!

    If I still had all my floppies, with my amazing self-made games and simulators, They could all be shared over the web with real Atari fans. I never predicted any of this. It was all lost in the move. DAM!

    If at all possible, could you host a video with more details on how to build one on your own, especially the SIO cable wiring which you chose not to cover in detail. Thank you for the video!

    Just discovered your channel, and love it. Nice work. I hit the age of 9 in 1980...had a 400 and an 800XL growing up and am trying to get back into it once I get some hardware again. I'm weighing going original 1050, but this type of solution seems pretty appealing. In your opinion is this thing deployment ready at this point? Especially the DIY build plans/instructions/code? Keep up the great content!

      Good to hear from you. This project is still under development but everything is getting solid as the days progress. I would say a release 1.0 is around the corner. I also have a 1050 drive with ICD doubler chip. I still love using floppy disks.

    Total got me on this one with the isolation and being busy as hell had no idea this was in the works. I see a sio cable and wonder if that is where the bottle neck is. I would like to see this used for raw fast communication between faster PCs and ataris. Distributed solutions is what I am talking about. That could take an Atari beyond anything that has been done. Mounting a atr image is kind of been done, start with a first question is this faster than sio2usb? Ok but is it faster than a ultimate megabyte board and the sad card for that?

    • @tschak909
      @tschak909 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The point of this device is to act as a network adapter. For maximum compatibility, we chose to do everything over the SIO bus. Because of this, we can, and have emulated just about every possible Atari peripheral that can be connected via the SIO, all at once.
      As far as speeds, we are limited by the speed of the SIO bus, which, for most things is okay. Since we emulate the D: device, existing high-speed SIO routines can be utilized which work up to 125Kbps. Since SIO can operate in synchronous mode, utilizing an external clock, and we can generate an external clock, we have the potential to drive it even faster, once appropriate code has been written.
      The ultimate point of this device, is to provide both a solid out of the box experience for Atari users that everyone can utilize (the disk, printer, and modem devices), as well as provide a new N: device, which can facilitate TCP and UDP communications, with the important distinction that the ESP microcontroller can, and does help with offloading many aspects of not only the TCP or UDP protocol itself, but can also handle the next layer up, and thus present to the Atari a clean and simple interface to the network, that can be used with the existing operating system I/O commands, e.g. being able to do RUN"N:HTTP://35.239.67.240/BLACKJACK.BAS" from Atari BASIC. or being able to Copy from an FTP. Furthermore, since the ESP has sufficient processing capabilities and memory, it can handle any required cryptographic operations, and thus suddenly the world of HTTPS and SSH become available to us, accessed with exactly the same Atari CIO interface. This means INPUT #1;A$, this means PRINT #1;"OUT TO THE INTERNET", this means new networking software that can be written by anyone over a weekend for lots of Atari users.
      For the record, I use this device, with an Ultimate 1MB in my Atari 1200XL, with the U1MB providing the high-speed I/O. It works exceedingly well.

    Is there current documentation for settting up the software and getting it loaded onto the ESP32 board? I am only seeing docs for using Aurdino IDE to set up a ESP8266. Looks like I need Platformio to set this up? Thanx
