I'm going to build a #wifi #serial #modem for my #amstrad PPC640. Something like #theoldnet 's wifi modem, but I'll use #zimodem on an #esp8266 , because it worked ok with my #commodore64 and now I have some experience with it...
The idea is having the esp emulate an #hayes modem on the #UART pins and convert it to rs232 using a #max3232 module.
I also will need to solder a 9 to 25 pin #rs232 adapter, because I absolutely don't remember where mine is (used last time a couple of home moves ago... 😅)

#dos #bbs #internet

Finally also ordered a tall #pi2 case.
my raspberry pi2 has a #max3232 on it and ive been holding the case together with wire ties.

the pi2/3 case scene is pretty dire and is only going to get worse. had to order a case from UK (appropriate for a RISC OS PI) and no estimate on delivery times... 😢
