I'm not sure. In the manual, the command "ATB" lets me decide if I want V.21 or Bell 103 for 300 bit/s. (ATB0 or ATB1)...

AFAIK it's a "Datenklo", a selfmade modem based on a AM7910 chip by AMD.

A question to the #retrocomputing people: does anyone have an idea what parameters need to be set on a modern #modem when calling a V.21 300 baud modem?
Neither my Elsa Microlink 56k nor the internal modem of my iMac G4 are able to CONNECT...

A question to the #retro #mac (and maybe #GlobalTalk) community:
Is it possible to access the disk in a Apple Time Capsule from Mac OS 9 (via LAN)? I can access it from OS X Tiger, but fail somehow from OS 9...
Thank you!

Visiting every #GlobalTalk server/share takes a while...

I've added a little writeup now :)

I took part in the #GlobalTalk Scavenger Hunt and finished it (with the great help of @npub1pfp…x9j0 's clue thread) :)
Thank you very much to @npub1j4d…ftz8 who created it - and to all who took part in it!
It was very cool to be part of this adventure and to help a little :)

Thank you!
I started to hunt a little deeper in the archive from your link and found this page:
https://web.archive.org/web/20110524181444/http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1998?viewlocale=en_US
I did not check the links, but it also contains other firmwares (and for A1034 is no newer version there) - so this might also be good for uploading.

Oh wow, thank you soooo much!
I searched but did not find it...
I'll try the update later.

Does anyone know a source for the last firmware file for a Apple AirPort Extreme A1034?
Thank you!

My current guess concerning the clues is that the numbering is binary :-)

I tried to and added a new link to https://globaltalk.network/index.php?page=All%20About%20AppleTalk, but when clicking on the new link, I only get a white page?!
Did I do it the wrong way?

Thank you for that hint!
It seems that the professional edition of ShareWay IP can act as a gateway for IP clients to AppleTalk servers.
It's in the Garden, I will try it :)

A question regarding #GlobalTalk and MacOS X #Tiger: Is it possible to make Tiger (10.4.11) compatible with AFP via AppleTalk shares?
I thought that it would work, but I guess my own netatalk just used AFP over IP.
Now I tried mounting a GlobalTalk share from my new 12-inch PowerBook G4 and got a message saying that it doesn't work...
Is there anything that can be configured here to make it work (well, besides using 10.3)?
Thank you!

Very cool setup! Especially with all the LocalTalk devices!

This one really looks nice, but my iMac runs MacOS 9 and has no Bluetooth...

Retro Mac people: What trackball would be the most fitting for a iMac G4?
Has there been a nice white model back in the days?
Thank you!

Are you using emulators (which? I would try one on my iMac G4) or PC add-on cards here?

I think Tcl/Tk apps also fit into this "world". Eg. TkDesk could work as desktop and file manager :-)

I've never used it before :-)
Do you want to have an account on the FC server?
(Interestingly noone has asked for one until now...)

2025-02-02 20:22:25 CET

- reply

Thanks :-)
I wanted to use inn in between so that FC does not directly connect to the Internet.
And I get my Usenet feed via UUCP, as I don't have a fixed IP address - and that way no port has to be opened :-)

Yes, I'm using the FC NNTP support. inn is feeding the newsgroups to FC and gets messages from the FC conferences.

New service for #GlobalTalk users:
My #FirstClass server now is connected to some #Usenet newsgroups!
Just get an account on the FC server (send me a DM) to get write access. (Reading is possible as guest)
If some other groups are of interest, I can fetch groups from this list:

Does PeerTube have a Android TV app, so that I can use it on my TV? Thank you!

The FirstClass server is already running. I'll put the client files on the server "Babylon 5" in my GlobalTalk zone "BabCom" this week.
If you like to get an account, just DM me.
I don't have any experience with FirstClass, but I'll try to learn :)

2025-01-13 10:13:35 CET

Hallo #GlobalTalk users! Is anyone interested in using a #FirstClass system via GlobalTalk? I'm hosting a FirstClass 5.5 system in my zone BabCom which can be used via AppleTalk (the server is running on qemu).
I have a 10 user license, so ~8 GlobalTalk users are possible. If anyone has more licenses, I can add them :)
The FC system can also send and receive Internet E-Mails, so mails via GlobalTalk would be possible :)
That could be a nice addition for the upcoming #MARCHintosh
