Ok, I think I am one step closer, but still nothing on the Plus. I installed the Basilisk Ethernet driver and switched to that interface on my computer in the Basilisk setup. I changed the System on the Basilisk to use a correct IP for that private network and I can browse again with iCab. So I think Basilisk is back online, but this time directly on Ethernet to the switch.
I see more blinking lights on the Asante device now, so I'm guessing my Basilisk is chattering Appletalk on the ethernet... But on the Plus side I don't see anything and on the Asante I don't see the Tx light doing anything. Again I tried plugging the D9 connector in the Printer and the Modem but still nothing. Am I missing something on the software side now?
