Appletalk
Linksys doesn't support appletalk, which is a bit of a drag. We're probably going to chuck our Linksys router soon for that very reason. It's a pain.

Yeah, but isn't AppleTalk supposed to go away soon anyway. At least that's what Apple was saying when they introduced X. AppleTalk is currently a legacy technology they are supporting.

1. with 10.2.2 you no longer have to put a $ infront of hex
who cares..
If you run Os X you don't need apple talk. I have a linksys wet11 and i use it with my iBook (800mhz combo :) ) and i connect to my tower and emac just fine. I'm not sure what protocol it uses, but i know its not samba. I see my macs on the wireless network and choose my file system to mount. and voila, i'm in. Appletalk is almost dead, and a very poor protocol at that. Stick with your linksys router that gets regular updates, and has good support.

What about AppleTalk printers... you know, laser printers that connect via LocalTalk/Ethernet adapters? Sorry, but for a lot of folks, AppleTalk is NOT dead. Whenever possible I advise clients to go TCP/IP instead... but in some cases, it's just not feasible yet. OS 9 or OS X, it makes no difference.
who cares..
I am one of those people who still has an old localtalk printer. I currently don't have the resources to buy a network-ready printer, so I have to use AppleTalk, but I'm experiencing some problems seeing the printer. |
