Just ordered stuff from Digikey to help troubleshoot the port during Easter.

Does the port act like a normal serial Tx/Rx on the Amiga with the normal serial.device (except it's TTL obviously)? No need for any fancy wrapper or workaround?
Yup that should work. You'll need to flash it with esp_slip_router and set the baud rate

Yeah, flashed it with the default .bin's and with self-compiled .bin's but nothing.
Wasn't able to Putty it or make it connect to my wifi.

Will use my Raspberry Pi to troubleshoot it tonight. More reliant that way... :roll:

You wont be able to putty. You need to SLAttach to it via linux and then telnet to port 7777 like the instructions say here.

This might be easier, and at this stage the only working option. I'm not concerned if its at 19200 or 115000 baud, as long as there is a way to send files to/from the CD32, it would be more than what is running at the moment: no way of sending files to/from the CD32

I might start a new thread on it, if there is no objection.

@terriblefire Can you try disabling "carrier detect" on the PPP tab of the interface in genesis Prefs?

Default setting (as in the walkthrough) + it's running at 115200 :)
Only thing I know I changed is Modems/TAs setting: Device-tab: Ignore DSR.

Not gotten DNS* working yet, but getting there is easier now that I have the basics working.

Oh! I swapped my ESP-01S with a Adafruit ESP8266.

Edit: Got DNS working :D
