That’s right! Now your Commodore 64 can surf the web! Well, kinda.
In today’s video, I go over two ways to get the venerable Commodore 64 online. The C64 is one of my favorite retro machines, and I hope you enjoy this trip down (a slightly modernized) memory lane.
Here’s a few links to the tools I referenced in today’s video, and other things which might be helpful!
⚡ C64 PSU I use:
📶 Wi-Fi modem:
🟧 64nic :
🖥️ CCGMS Download:
📌 Particles BBS website:
ℹ️ Helpful blog post on troubleshooting the 64nic :
🐸 Frogfind and 📰 - heavily optimized sites with retro computers in mind: and (courtesy of the fantastic @ActionRetro)
⏩ My favorite Fastloader - the “Epyx Fastload Reloaded“ from The Future Was 8-Bit:
🎮 Evan Amos’ book, “The Game Console“ (he took many great photos of game systems and put them into the public domain):
🚧 Items I 3d printed for this episode:
- Pi1541 case: :4611954
- 64nic case: :2909991
Commodore BASIC commands used during the making of this video:
`LOAD“*“,8` - load the first thing (or last opened file during current session) on the Commodore floppy drive
`RUN` - runs the program it just loaded
`LOAD“$“,8` - load the list of files from the Commodore floppy drive
`LIST` - actually list out the list-of-files loaded with the previous command
“Esoteric command“ that renames the file: `OPEN 1,8,15,“R:= “:CLOSE 1`
`LOAD“SETMAC“,8` - sets the mac address for your device in Contiki
`LOAD“CONTIKI“,8` - loads the CONTIKI program itself
