you can grab one of those about anywhere that sells computer stuff. Best Buy, Circuit City, Comp USA, etc. In fact I think they had it at Wal Mart (although don't quote me on that.) Radio Shack will also have it so call around.

I think he's asking where to get a broadband adapter for the gamecube. It sounds like he got a modem adapter instead, and it won't work with the comcast cable connection.

Since Mario Kart Double Dash is utilizing Lan, they will likely start carrying these in common retail establishments again. For quite some time, this was the only game that utilized the things, and because of that the foreign stock ended up rotting on the docks. Nintendo stopped shipping them, as it was costing more to develop and ship the things than they were making off of this dead game we call PSO. But now that an actual popular Ninetendo title is going to be using them, they should start appearing pretty quickly again. I wouldn't be surprised to see more PSO episode 1&2 copies showing up in retail establishments again because of the reemergence of the broadband adapters. Of course, we also have PSO episode 3 coming out in a few months here, so Nintendo will be expecting greater sales of both the broadband and modem adapters, the latter of which he purchased incorrectly.

Then again, after rereading his message, it seems he may have just been looking for the cable. Oops.

LOL what part of this quote from his original post made you think he can't find the BBA?

"I got comcast so I went out to find a Broadband at Electonics and Boutics and I found one and it didnt come with the Enthernet"

Not to mention the fact that he said he tried the phone cord with it and obviously it didn't work. Did you really even read the post http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif j/k

I just couldn't make myself believe he wouldn't have continued looking until he found the cord, and instead tried using the phone cord.
