FujiNet is the best peripheral for my Atari 800 since 1979.

[@The_Haze]

Thanks for the video, I just ordered a Fujinet because of this vid... I'll watch it again when I get it to help set it up!

[@fierodoug58]

Cassette emulation is now working in current firmware, as well as a fix for the hanging bug on some BBS's Fujinet just keeps getting better!

[@Doug_in_NC]

Thanks, that was really informative. This was by far the clearest overview I have seen on what Fujinet can do. I bought one as a spur of the moment purchase without knowing everything it could do when buying some other hardware because I figured it would probably be useful and wanted to avoid paying postage twice. Now I’m really enthusiastic about getting it up and running.

[@Applecompuser]

I'm glad to see some Atari channels. It felt like there was more C64 content. The 800 was my first comp., and I kept many of the floppy disks. Later, I got the 130 XE, when I damaged my keyboard during a final exam. My only regret was not having any assembly language software or books when I got the machine. Good luck with the channel!

[@wyliemoose5217]

I was definitely on the fence and have purchased a lesser device. TYVM for your very informative video

[@mattski73]

Great video, thank you. I've just ordered my FujiNet and can't wait to get going.

[@10MARC]

Great stuff for sure. Just got my Fujinet yesterday and I am looking forward to exploring it!

[@clhauk]

Thanks for this informative video. I just got my FujiNet and your video cleared up a lot for me.

[@StanoHrda]

Such a great howto. Thanks for your advices for best practices. It will help me a lot to fast apply new skills into my Fujinet setup. :D

[@back2skooldaze]

This is frikkin awesome!! The holly grail for the atari 8bit ;) Excellent video and real good clear instructions on how to use the fujinet :) Thank you

[@musclesmouse]

finally, getting mine online

[@fierodoug58]

I am getting PM's concerning the card on the monitor stand. It is a gift card that expired 4/20, had about $.78 left on it. I tried to blur it using KZbins editor, but we see how well that worked.

[@mchorvat]

great intro to Fujinet! thank you :)

[@daveschings828]

Thanks for the overview of Fujinet! I just took my Arari 800 out of the box it’s been sitting in for the last 30 years and after I recap the power supply and get my monitor cable I’ll hook it up. Unfortunately, I just ordered an SDrive-MAX but Fujinet has much more functionality!

[@larryw1815]

The PDF looks like a really nice feature. Nice video and a very good explanation.

[@fierodoug58]

Sure is, very useful

[@mokeecomputer5751]

Just got my FujiNet, thanks for this video. Very well done! See you ran at NJMP short time back. I live nearby, small world!

[@musclesmouse]

I need to use my Fuji net

[@markstrickland438]

Great video!

[@petrok1rp254]

An excellent video, thank you so much. I've just ordered my FujiNet and can't wait to get going. Just single “Lama’s” question ...how do you have connected the 800XL to your Win PC please? Petr

[@jimmyfitzpatrick1463]

Thanks!

[@Skysams]

Great video and excelent explanation! At your left hand you have the S-Drive Max "embedded" in a shell? The stylus is placed on it too, can you tell what's that "case"? Thank you

[@rafaelmmartinez9170]

Thanks for the video, helped me a lot. What do you use to connect the 800xl to your monitor?

[@scotthelgeson6892]

Thanks for this very helpful video! Just got my fujinet and started playing around. I have my 1050 connected as D2, and would like to copy all my old floppy disks to the SD card. How do I do that? Thanks

[@mixtapesforever1765]

Thanks good video please how to create tnfs server in my pc whith windows thanks

[@sideburn]

I’ve noticed that Fujinet is not happy with an SDrive Max plugged in and powered off. If you want to keep it plugged into the SIO bus it must be powered on and virtual drives set to empty.

[@markustairov4547]

hya doug, what tnfs serversoftware u are using ? i tested different but the ones did not work :)

[@back2skooldaze]

What i'd like to know does the fujinet work with high speed loading like the atarimax ApeWarp OS or any other high speeds like spartados? Is there a setting like in SIO2PC where you can change the loading speed? The loading speeds im referring to is when loading from the pc to the atari

[@johnmcafee4816]

Coolest thing ever

[@cathrynm]

Mine still shows 2.5.2020-08-25 after updating bios, I guess that is the newest then?

[@BobAg_]

What's the best way to get the 800XL connected to a monitor with only VGA and DVI connections? Is there a converter?

[@louisehelgeson1706]

Thanks for this very helpful video! I have new Fujinet and am trying to update my firmware. My laptop is running windows 10, have connected a USB from laptop to Fujinet, the unit powers on, but my laptop does not recognize the device. I have downloaded the flash from fujinet online. When I run the flash, nothing shows up as an option in the serial device dropdown. Any ideas?

[@netcoord99]

Run this.. www.silabs.com/developers/usb-to-uart-bridge-vcp-drivers Your ports are missing..

[@atariandre5014]

So...do you need to have a PC (or Mac) running all the time if you just want to directly load something from the internet ?

[@daviddingley305]

How do you use the SD card? Can you use it to move image files from the atari or to a Atari emulator on a PC?

[@back2skooldaze]

Hi Doug please can you answer this for me. Ive got my fujinet 1.5 and its awesome!! Works fantastic best piece of atari 8bit kit EVER!!! Ive just found that leaving the 1050 switched on with no disc in the fujinet won't boot so the 1050 has to be switched off! Now Ive got my 850 interface sio2pc and sd drive max hooked up to my hub all inline of course i don't now need to use the 850 but im not able to use the sio2pc or the sd drive max with the fujinet? I load an image in sio2pc and ive even turned the fujinet off and i still can't load anything? So i then disconnect the fujinet and all is working? I then tried the sd drive max and i get the same issue? The only drive on the sio chain that works is the 1050 drive? Can you please tell me how to get the sio2pc or the sd drive max to load an image with the fujinet? Thank you

[@netcoord99]

Has anyone here been successful accessing their 1050 drives from the Fujinet? If so, how did you set it up and do the directory of it, etc..?

[@Spider_Rico]

If I buy the Fujinet 1.5, do I need the 16GB MicroSD to go online (BBS)?

[@tomh.4434]

I load up all eight drives with different images, and they are compatible, either ATR or XEX. I then select the drive slot number and hit option to boot, holding down option to bypass basic. However, no matter which drive slot I select and tell it to load from, it always loads from the first slot. Am I doing something wrong? Thank you for any help.

[@netcoord99]

I don't think they meant it to work this way but I just found out the same thing was happening to mine only booting slot 1.

[@JimVeneskey]

At 12:50, you reset the FujiNet and then power cycle the computer. Could you simply preset the Reset button on keyboard? (I'm not only new to FujiNet - but to Atari 8bit's in general)

[@fierodoug58]

Yeah, hit reset would work, I just got in the habit of using the switch for no good reason

[@back2skooldaze]

Hi Jim, The reset button releases the image in D1: on the fujinet i then have to hard reset the atari to load the fujinet again?

[@RicardoBanffy]

Does have to behave as a single floppy drive? You started DOS in a drive, then switched the image for the drive. Could it behave as multiple drives?

[@fierodoug58]

It can act as 8 drives. D1-D8

[@mmille10]

Tiny detail, but I noticed the first line of the printout (a line of stars) got clipped on printing.

[@fierodoug58]

Yeah, that has been fixed in later firmware

[@back2skooldaze]

So when BB'ing theres no need for the atari 850 ?

[@fierodoug58]

Yup, no 850 needed, just the fujinet

[@winrg1234]

that your bank card in frame the whole video?

[@michaelthornton4284]

get a new debit card under viewsonic monitor

[@tschak909]

How...did you manage to get over 5K views?

[@fierodoug58]

I don't know, lots of new fujinet users I guess. I really need to make a new updated video soon.

[@tschak909]

@@fierodoug58 I'm just really confused, because the official video which shows all the features in 15 mins gets nothing. :(
