Hi all,
No point to point networking interfaces available or configured.

No point to point network interfaces
Support Roadshow
Re: No point to point network interfaces
The TCP/IP stack supports two kinds of network devices.
There are those which use a shared data transmission medium, such as Ethernet or any Wi-Fi device. They can send broadcast messages to all other devices which share the same medium and also receive such messages. For example, a file sharing service such as Samba will announce regularly through broadcast messages that it's active and available for use.
Then there is the other kind which connects your Amiga to another network interface: point-to-point interfaces. No other devices share the same data transmission medium, it's like a hose you first connect to a faucet and then hook up a sprinkler to the other end of the hose (except for a network device, what travels through the "hose" can go into both directions, and not just to the sprinkler, so to speak). This type of network device is rarely used today, but back when dial-up networking and the early DSL modems were new you would use SLIP, PPP or eventually PPPoE network devices to connect your Amiga to the Internet. Roadshow ships with ppp-serial.device and ppp-ethernet.device drivers which both can be used to set up point-to-point network interfaces.
Re: No point to point network interfaces
hi thanks for the reply but how do I rectify this?
I'm using a plipbox, emu68 pistorm and rom 3.2 if that helps.
I also have the full version of roadshow.
getnetstatus shows this
Networking interfaces are available and connected
No point to point networking interfaces are available and configured
Broadcast networking interfaces are available and configured
Name resolution servers is configured
routing information is configured
the default route is configured
bsdsocket.library 4.332
roadshow 4.332 (29.4.17)
