If I look back in my test logs, I can already see the same error on 2022-05-21, and a number of later tests. Around the same time I've sent him an email about AmigaNet, but never got a response. I've a connection with him on LinkedIn, so I've just sent him a messeage on that platform...


Bye, Wilfred.
