I made this video to share how this can be done quite easy with AspireOS or AROS in general.

Video

As you might know AROS does not have many network drivers and only one for wi-fi.
This solves that problem.
Only problem I had with this is that if AROS is used with USB storage device the internet connection is slow but when I installed AROS to internal storage device, SSD the internet connection is fast. Maybe some USB conflict I don't know.

@nikosidis

Good tip.

An alternative, if you have a router which has wifi, is to use a small repeater/bridge giving you ethernet out.

I have several computers, including my AmigaOneXE, where I use a Vonets MN300 for that job.

£7 each for four of them on ebay!

@OldAmigan

I have two of those, and I use them with my A1200 and Mac Mini. They are convenient, because you can power them from a USB port or charger. Another bonus is that the WPA encryption won't eat up your CPU time, although that's not very relevant on x86 computers
