Feature request: communication over LAN? #2

Open twinec opened 2 years ago

I don't have a USB to apple serial adapter, much less any means to make it, so is it possible to get it to communicate over TCP/IP?

Hi there, it's a fair question and could certainly be done, but I don't personally have an old Mac with any sort of TCP/IP capabilities :)

Here's my guide for building the proper USB to RS-422 cable, with links to purchase everything you need: https://henlin.net/2021/12/21/Building-a-USB-to-RS422-cable-for-your-classic-Macintosh/
