Hey, If you ever had a gamecube game such as Phantasy Star Online, or some other gamecube game with internet play, the Gamecube Broadband Adapter is the best way to go. After I got mine, just plugged it into the router and everything was working fine.
There is a program called Warpipe that allows you to play some other games online, but since that requires a PC outside of your Gamecube, that's not something most people will ever use it for. As long as you buy the Gamecube Broadband Adapter knowing what you're getting, it's worth the price of admission. Basically though, aside from Mario Kart Double Dash in LAN mode and Phantasy Star Online (which is only playable now on private servers), you can't do very much with it. As it is, it does what it's supposed to do, and when it comes to hardware, you can't ask for much more than that.
I originaly ordered the BBA to connect to PSO online on a private server, then i realised with a certain proxy i can play SSB:M online. GREAT PRODUCT. you can also hook your GC's up with friends with mario kart:Double Dash
The Gamecube Broadband Adaptor is simply an attachment for the GCN to hook up to a network/internet connection to allow multiplayer games to connect to the internet. It's extremely easy to connect to your GCN, easy to find the port to connect LAN cable, and then it's just a matter of playing your game and knowing how to connect abroad.This adaptor is also able to be used in order to stream ISOs from your PC to be read from your GCN. It takes more than just the adaptor and a GCN, but this is what actually enables the network connectivity needed.
Nobody plays on gamecube on that server anymore because Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst is compatible on that private server now. The only reason people used to get this was for Phantasy Star Online but the server went down. There was also a private server for a while where you didn't have to do the whole monthly fee thing and you could play with people on pc but. [.].
