What else can I say? If you want to access the Gamecube's (currently limited) selection of online games, you'll need this adapter to do so. Its very disreet and fits under the machine in one of the empty bays. The telephone line will fit into the socket revealed at the side. The modem seems to make no noise what-so-ever, even when dialling up, which is nice to see, and although there may be some issues wih what ISPs you can use for connecting to Phantasy Star Online, this is down to their servers and the method of connection rather than th modem itself. The hardware is perfectly fine.


5 out of 5 stars Suprisingly good performance for a 56k- thats Ninty quality   March 27, 2003

Like most people, I do not have Broadband internet access at home yet so my only method of playing Phantasy Star Online is through this and my second phone line.
However, the game plays fine with very little evidence of lag with my ISP, and most people I've met online have 56ks anyway.

Word of warning though, before buying, contact your ISP about using playing online through your Gamecube because some 'don't except third party software'. Luckily, I changed ISP to one that accepts online gaming and the sign up process on PSO was quick and easy.

So, if you're playing PSO and aren't intending on getting Broadband in the near future then this is a solid, reliable option and really an essential purchase.


5 out of 5 stars A New Meaning To Online Gaming   March 19, 2003

This is purely a must-have for anyone who knows hte excitment of online gaming and wants to bring it to their console. For anyone who has attempted it, using a standard PC and a 56Kb line to play games online is woefuly slow and incredibly laggy giving you a majour disadvantage to people on broadband. The gamecube is different being a dedicated gaming machine playing games on a normal phoneline is just as good as using a broadband line. A gaming experience which should not be tured down currently the only online supported game PSO is amazing and I am sure there will be more even bigger and even better titles to follow

This adaptor is good, although the broadband adaptor is much better, plus its the same price. It does the same thing as the broadband adaptor only not as quickly, but the broadband adaptor needs broadband connection equipment such as a DSL modem, so if you dont already have this you will have to buy it.
