Home / Consoles / Dreamcast Dreamcast broadband adapter available again. The rather rare net adapter for the DC is back in a store.

Dreamcast broadband adapter available again. (modified 0 times) SnowWolf Profile If you go to http://www.lik-sang.com you can find new broadband adapters for about $120 ($140 includes shipping if you're not in a hurry). These are new, in-box items. The only down side is that they are based in Singapore (or Honk-Kong.. can't remember which). Shipments can take a while, but I've succesfully bought from them before with great satisfaction. (I had to replace the power supply after fritzing the old one when modding the case) Couple this with the $50 Dreamcast consoles (Sega's try to get rid of old US stock), throw in a few accessories (ps/2 keyboard and adapter), and you have a fairly reasonable priced web-console ready for the building. 12-03-2001 12:59:03

RE:Dreamcast broadband adapter available again. (modified 0 times) SnowWolf Profile And gone.. some days ago actually. Glad I ordered mine when I did. Once it comes I'll see about whacking.. I mean hacking my dreamcast into a web interface... just need to find a good wireless keyboard and mouse :} 12-14-2001 06:00:44

RE:Dreamcast broadband adapter available again. (modified 0 times) beaviskob1 Profile Be careful I heard some of the new bba's are not fully compatible with some games. I forget what site said so . It might have been planetdreamcast or consolevision. I pesonally hate giving away money : ). 01-01-2002 01:42:34

RE:Dreamcast broadband adapter available again. (modified 0 times) SnowWolf Profile considering there's only.. waht.. three games that it's compatible with? I'm not too worried... 'sides... what I want it for is to make the DC into a web-console and broadband would be handy. 01-02-2002 08:32:20

RE:Dreamcast broadband adapter available again. (modified 0 times) beaviskob1 Profile Please search the article. Cause I believe it something about having problems with ripping and posibbly what you wanted to use it for ! 01-02-2002 20:22:34

RE:Dreamcast broadband adapter available again. (modified 0 times) SnowWolf Profile From the ConsoleVision page. Lik-Sang are now selling Dreamcast Broadband Adapters again. We have received another limited shipment of the hot Dreamcast Broadband adapter from Japan. Please note that our DC Broadband Adapters are the genuine Sega versions which will not only work with the attached browser, but also with other browsers (US version) and the development software or games which support the network functions. We have received confirmation from customers who bought cheap adapters from other sources that those versions are the old DC LAN Adapters from 1999 and do not support the games or development tools. Those adapters do have a model number of HIT-0300 instead of HIT-0401 and are marked as "DC LAN Adapters" instead of "Broadband Adapters" on their box. What I bought is the Broadband adaptor... I'm not sure what dcload-ip or pod2 are.. but the Linux DC stuff is beeing written from the ground up. I'll check when I get home tonight.. see what chip is in it. 01-03-2002 00:20:40

RE:Dreamcast broadband adapter available again. (modified 0 times) SnowWolf Profile Well I opened rthe package of the BBA and sure enough, it is was it sez. The sticker on the box says HIT-0401 while one on the unit read HIT-0400. Neither of these are HIT-0300, which are the bad ones that the consolevision article refers too. Only downside is that the manual, box, and likely the browser are all in japanese... win some, loose some... 01-03-2002 12:39:11

RE:Dreamcast broadband adapter available again. (modified 0 times) beaviskob1 Profile Right on I'm glad its the good one even gladder I got mine from sega when first offered ; ). If you need the manual let me know and I'll see if I can scan it for you. 01-03-2002 20:50:23

RE:Dreamcast broadband adapter available again. (modified 0 times) MisfitLinuxPenguin Profile Anyone Think they are going to get more in? And where could I get a browser I lost my origonal browser CD somewhere when I moved. 03-12-2003 14:13:54
