You probably think I am kidding, right? Internet and Commodore 64 in the same sentence? Of course! Already when the \'64 was still in the stores people went \"online\" Back then, the big thing was to hook up the computer to the phone line, and dial a BBS. There you could play games, chat with other users, or download software amongst other things. The great thing are that many of the old BBS sites still exist! And a lot of new ones have emerged. What is great now, is that not only can you enter the C64 BBS systems, but you can also access a lot of the ones that is not Commodore based, giving you hundreds and hundreds of sites to visit.But since the old telephone has become a thing of the past, someone had to come up with something for today. And here it is. Why not use your Internet connection to dial? With this WiFi adapter in your user port, you can now use telnet to \"dial\" any BBS in the world! For free! The first time you use it, you enter a few easy menus with your number keys, and fill in your Wifi password and select speed, and save your settings, and then all you have to do is to start using it! Fortunately, I made a quick guide for the setup and first time use in my blog, so you will be up and running in a few minutes! It is really shocking how easy it is to get started, even for someone that never have used a BBS before. Don\'t worry, you can even use this with a Commodore 128 in C64 mode. It also works with both NTSC and PAL machines.This adapter support full 9600 BAUD. Trust me, you dont need more speed than that.
