Re: Econet
Also in there was a whole load of stuff about the "Kilostream Econet Bridge", including explanation of how it worked and some source code; I think this was the point at which SJ took over maintenance of the bridge from Acorn. Rather more work to scan that, though not impossible - anyone g...

Re: Tandata TD 2500
Is there a copy floating around that we could look at? Just wondering how easy it would be to burn a new EPROM with very simple code to dump the contents of the 192 bytes of static RAM out to screen/serial port.

There's a photo of the TD 2500 internals at http://binarydinosaurs.co.uk/Museum/Tan ... 2500-3.jpg. Have you removed the battery yet? I can't see anything that looks like an EEPROM, so that should wipe the password.

Re: Development workflow: moving data from PC to BeebEm
For similar workflows in the past, I configured Econet in BeebEm and ran aund (https://bjh21.me.uk/aund/) to give me a filesystem accessible from both the host machine and the emulator.

Re: Castle 10/100 RiscPC NIC—driver versions?
I'd expect this kind of weird behaviour if the switch port is doing auto-negotiation but the NIC isn't. You mentioned configuring the switch port auto-negotiation for 10Mbps so I'm assuming you've disabled auto-negotiation at both ends. Have you tried configuring 10Mbps half-duplex vs full-duplex at...

Not strictly Beeb-related but could be easily ported to 6502 with some search and replace. It might be something interesting to do with all those user port SD card interfaces now that Goteks have become so popular: https://www.pagetable.com/?p=1416

Re: What's wrong with OSGBPB?
OSGBPB makes a heck of a difference with file transfers over Econet, which need a 4-way handshake for every byte with OSBGET/OSBPUT.

Re: Arduino Filestore

Once I've debugged that, I'll probably be in a better position to help debug the AUN side of the fileserver. Implementing a gateway with the W5100 is tricky because the built-in UDP stack only expects...

Storage benchmarking
I want to see the effects of changing my Econet clock rate on ArduinoFilestore performance but I can't find any storage benchmarking programs for the Beeb. Before I go and hack something together (probably a sideways ROM to avoid depending on a filesystem), does anybody have any recommendations?

Re: Arduino Filestore
*FS 170 shouldn't hang, unless you're doing it on an emulated Beeb rather than a Master, in which case it's probably trying to load the "FS" program from the network.
Have you tried installing a packet sniffer like Wireshark and capturing UDP packets on port 32768 to see what's going on?

Would you mind please posting your EconetServer.ino.bin so I can rule out the software as an issue? It should be in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Temp\arduino_build_NNNNN.
