HIT-0401 LAN Adapter vs Coders Cable

Post by Christuserloeser »

I am looking for a BBA but since I can't find one, I am thinking of buying either a Coders Cable or a LAN Adapter. - What's the better choice ? Which of them is faster ?

well. Actually a LAN adapter is almost the same as the BBA.
Let me tell you that a coder's cable transfer at the speed of a dial-up modem, and the LAN/BBA adapter like 300 times faster, so you decide which one is better.
Check the BioGB emulator any help me get it much better!!

I believe the Lan adapter is 10mbit where as the BBA I know for sure is 100mbit. If memory serves they also use two different chipsets.

Yes, that's correct.

LAN adapters are harder to find, though; I haven't seen one on ebay in quite a while.

The LAN Adapter is HIT-0300, not HIT-0401 :wink: .

Seriously though, if you can manage it, the LAN Adapter is more useful than the coder's cable any day.

As BlueCrab said, that's the HIT-400/HIT-401, which is the Broadband Adapter.

The LAN adapter is HIT-300.

Officially, the LAN adapter is supported ONLY by the web browser it ships with. It does not work with any games.

The Broadband Adapter works with several web browsers and several games.

Both adapters work with homebrew stuff.
