#FujiNet is a network adapter for #retrocomputing and #retrogaming platforms.
We exist for many platforms. We want to go to many more.
If u can, please let these other communities know we exist; we want to work with them!

Hi
@tschak909 , you probably remember this thread:
https://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/amstrad-cpc-hardware/fujinet-for-the-cpc/
I always like new hardware for the CPC, (especially if it's compatible to existing ones, haha) or if it is not too difficult to write a new driver.
Regarding Fujinet, I really like it with my Atari 800.
On the CPC we have one project by
@abalore which at least has one similiar feature of the FujiNet...
https://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/news-events/amsteam-wip-game-streaming-service-for-the-amstrad-cpc/
...loading software from the Internet and execute it.
As FujiNet includes Wifi I could imagine to have a network driver for SymbOS. But first someone would have to make an adapter for the CPC.
We want people to come in and help bring up a version of FujiNet for the CPC. We have some designs for bus based systems which are progressing, and could really benefit from the additional eyeballs.

I concur with Prodatron, the more hardware expansion, the merrier. It's the users finally who choose if they want them or not.
But honestly there are interesting features in the FujiNet expansion, like network with other computers, not only CPC or the printing with modern printers.

Why don't connect it to a RS232 port connected to the CPC?
While there is an RS232 version, this is not just a dinky little WiFi MODEM.
It's a multi-peripheral, providing virtual disk, printer, modem, and networking facilities, and should be integrated with the target system using the best method possible. For the CPC? That seems to be the bus.

@abalore , why not join the team and contribute to the development effort?
With your expertise in the device you designed, I'm sure the community would deeply appreciate your involvement. I must say, the Fujinet devices are truly impressive, and the work the Fujinet team has done across various retro communities is nothing short of outstanding.
Honestly, if there are any CPC software or hardware enthusiasts looking to try something new, I highly recommend getting involved. The Atari Fujinet community is fantastic—everyone is incredibly helpful, and they've developed some impressive online tools specifically for the Atari Fujinet versions.
@tschak909 with the development of the Atari 2600 FUJINET PLUSCART Cartridge, do you think there is an opportunity to create a FUJINET for the Amstrad GX4000 Console in a cartridge? It would have a massive support and uptake, if it was achievable.
